Find an Apartment to rent in the UK
Renting from an apartment renter
Finding an apartment that you can afford to rent doesn’t have to mean finding a council or housing association property. There are many properties in Reading which are available to rent from a private landlord.
A private landlord is someone who owns one or more properties that they rent out to tenants.
Why rent with a private landlord
There are many advantages to renting privately:
- There are no waiting lists, so you’ll be capable to move in quickly
- You can choose where you live in the city, and you can easily move to a different area if you want
- There are many different types of property available, from one-bedroom studio flats to houses big sufficient for large families
- The properties will usually be well decorated and carpeted; this is time and again not the case with social housing.
- The properties often come with a fridge, freezer and washing machine
- If you’re on a stumpy income, you may be entitled to Housing Benefit which will cover some or all of your rent
Where to find a property
You can find properties to rent by:
- Searching for local letting agencies online
- Checking websites, such as:
- Checking local newspapers
- Speaking to the accommodation offices at UWE or Bristol University, if you’re a student
View the property
Once you hit upon a suitable property, you’ll need to go and have a look at it.
It’s a good idea to take a list of things to check so you don’t forget about anything when you’re there.
