Finding temporary accommodation in London
You will most likely need somewhere to stay in London on a short-term basis until you have a place of your own. Securing a place of your own is likely to take some time. Many options abound, but all at a price. What you will find acceptable for your needs in the short-term is a function of various factors. How much you can afford, how long you intend staying, what you will put up with, what you can’t do without, where it is, what kind of work you need/have, where your acquaintances are, how good the local transport is and how safe you feel are just some of the factors you will need to weigh up. It is also easier if you’re single, but not being single also has its advantages.
For anyone the best start will be to stay with friends or family. Just be sure to agree before you arrive as to how long your stay will be for. Be sure to leave on or before the appointed time, otherwise your relationship with them will never be the same.
