I'm a software engineer, I've got an offer in London so soon I'll be moving there, do you have any suggestion on how to find a flat/apartment for rent?

If you&#x27;re looking to share, try spareroom.co.uk - create a profile for someone searching, reach out to people in your budget bracket and say hello. May help to do a month in AirBnB before so you can figure out what area you want to be in &#x2F; meet the person&#x2F;people you may end up living with.<p>If you&#x27;re living by yourself, try rightmove.co.uk - you&#x27;ll end up talking to a bunch of agents. Obviously you have rent &#x2F; bills &#x2F; council tax on top of what&#x27;s on the site. Again, may be worth a month in AirBnB to try and figure out the area you like.<p>FWIW, I like East London - Shoreditch, Old St., etc. It&#x27;s a pretty good blend of people and things, and a good location for doing stuff (or at least starting your journey). I&#x27;m in London - contact details are in my profile - feel free to reach out if I can help more.

<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.foxtons.co.uk&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.foxtons.co.uk&#x2F;</a> is the biggest chain and also has short lets. It&#x27;s easy to find full furnished apartments. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.spareroom.co.uk&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.spareroom.co.uk&#x2F;</a> or <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.moveflat.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.moveflat.com&#x2F;</a> for flatshares. Plus the usual big portals rightmove and zoopla. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gumtree.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gumtree.com&#x2F;</a> is the local equivalent of classifieds (Craigslist). In Greater London area all prices are listed per week (x4.3 to convert to month) but payment is per month.

Maybe also look outside of London, and work out how much commuting in is. Depending on what you are after, you might get a better deal.
