Zoopla

Zoopla is a property website, focused on empowering users with the resources they need to make better-informed property decisions.

- Renting in the UK is very difficult right now. There are far more tenants looking than available places, which means prices are high and competition very large. You may struggle due to your lack of history in the UK, which may mean you have to provide a guarantor (someone who promises to pay your rent if you stop paying) and/or pay 6-12 months of rent up-front. If you are looking for a vacant property to rent in full, then 99% of places are advertised on rightmove.co.uk and zoopla.co.uk. If you are looking for a room in a place that people are already renting, then spareroom.co.uk is the most popular platform. A lot of people also like openrent.co.uk but I have never used it, personally. Laws protecting renters are pretty good but poorly understood and not very well enforced.
