title.

i’m moving to london in late june to begin my placement year (office based in shoreditch). i’ve been looking at places to rent for a few months but countless landlords/companies i’ve enquired keep saying im too early (which i know because every listing i find says “available to rent ASAP”) so i haven’t secured a place to rent yet. i’ve been looking on rightmove mainly but not rly any luck as, again, im too early.

any advice? especially as i’m a student and i’ve never moved away to london, especially on my own. my budget is £900pcm so idc if what i get is a shithole but i just wanna make sure i don’t miss out on getting somewhere to live before it’s too late.
