London Accommodation
My son has just received news of his Internship placement next year - it is with Lloyds Banking Group in London, Red Lion Court London SE19.
I havn't a clue of how to go about looking for some accommodation for him - the pros and cons etc. I was wondering if anyone had any experience/contacts etc. Other than this I guess I will be searching the Internet for a few days! If anyone does have any ideas, I will be basically looking for 2-3 bedroom flat in the London SE19 area as a one or two of his mates from uni also have placements in London. I have 10 days before I go back to sea to sort this one out :panic: Any ideas/agents etc etc gratefully appreciated. |
Confirm you mean SE19 as in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill areas of London......
Or do you mean SE1 9EQ as in Red Lion Court in the City. If as I suspect the latter, you may well be worth looking at somewhere a bit further out and costing that and travel against renting nearer a central location. It would probably work out cheaper somewhere on the main London Bridge line and him travelling in. |
As above you would get a better flat be looking just outside London, with more for your money. better place to live
I live in hertfordshire trians into Liverpool street in under a hour. try looking at the transport for london web site for ways to get into work. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/ could get some think like this rould hear. http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-...-27137609.html which has two BR STN near by. |
I would suggest gumtree.
Can occasionally find some great deals. |

Yes it is the Red lion Court in the City. As you say I need to look at costs involved/travel etc. I would really prefer "on the doorstep" so as to speak so I know my son will get to work on time!!! :D |
Does really depend on budget and requirements.
I have a colleague who has a 3 bed property in that area that he rents, it is a very nice property but maybe not suitable for students, but that is £1590 Per Calendar Month (£2000 Deposit) Plus Council Tax (Not cheap) etc. If suitable I can obtain details. |

Okay, many thanks John |
I must have trawled through 5 million flat adverts for London flats since I started looking - (perhaps slight exaggeration). I had short lists for this agent and that agent.........then when you ring up you get "oh they are all gone" or "not available yet"!!!! At best I have got one or two possibles from 2 agents - going to London on Monday to check them out. If all these flats are gone or not available why don't they remove them from the site :mad:
