Identify where you want to live

There are many useful websites that advertise properties including: 

• Gumtree
• Homes24
• Rightmove
• Spare Room
• Zoopla

You can also find accommodation by:

• checking letting agents on the high street
• using social media
• asking friends, family or associates
• putting advertisements in shops and newsagents

It is a good idea to make a short list of properties you are interested in and arrange a viewing as quickly as possible.
