I moved into a 3 bedroom house 100yards down the road from my 2 bed flat because the rent was less. Still don’t get why it was cheaper

#7

Zone 2 South-East London

Dunno about rooms, I’m not on Spareroom book
1 Bed - £1100
3 Bed - £2200 to inifinity

#8

According to my sources (Google), for Cambridge it’s

  • room is £557
  • one bed property* is £949
  • three bed property* is £1385

Seems about right based on past experience except that the last one feels low.

*data doesn’t distinguish between house and flat

#9

Room - £530 maybe
1 bed - £800
3 bed - £1500

#10

I think people round here (Brighton) pay about £1500 pcm for a 2 bed flat - which seems like fucking loads

No idea for bigger/ smaller places

  • n/a
  • £500
  • £1000

Glasgow West End:
1 room: dunno
1 bed: ~£600
3 bed: ~£1500

Caveats: 1 mile radius covers a huge range of areas so went 1/4 mile instead. Also there’s almost no houses in the wider area so the 3 bed price is for a flat.

First listings I found, average properties:

€800
€1800
€2300

Pcm

:woozy_face: its not a posh part of town, could conceivably be described as gentrifying

#15

Woodford

One bed in shared anywhere from £550 to £800 plus

One bed - circa £1000

Two bed - £1250+

#16

It can massively vary though - If you’re prepared to live in Patcham, Coldean or Bevendean you can pay a lot less

#17

I reckon £1500 is probably more accurate

Yeah, we didn’t manage to find anything comparable to the two bed place we were renting that was less than about £1400, but we were being a bit picky because that place was a good size and location (albeit in pretty poor condition).

I’m talking from a ridiculously small sample of “people I know who’ve also told me how much rent they pay”

Scary figures in this thread. The world’s fucked.

Caterham (Zone 6, but not in a London Borough)

Room £600
1 bed flat £850
3 bed house £1400

Cardiff (up itself bit of the centre of the city) -

Room - £400 pcm
1-bed - £750 pcm
3-bed - £1300 pcm

This is just around my area, and I am lucky to say that we’ve been renting for five years at substantially lower than market value thanks to our landlord being pretty hands-off and us agreeing to longer rental terms.

I kept the geography pretty tight on these averages because Cardiff has quite extreme variation (like most places) and I wanted to give a representative figure for near me.

#24

This as well for Tunbridge Wells, although room is more like £500 probably (not in Zone Anything)

#25

A room f£600
A one bed flat £1,100
A Three Bed House £1,800 - £2,000
