  • I arrived to UK in September, and immediately started to look for a flat to rent.
    But in the beginning I could not even get a viewing!
    Why?
    The housing situation in Edinburgh is dramatic. More and more students coming every year to study here and there is not enough students accommodations to fit them. They start to compete with professionals, many of which are coming for work from abroad or from other cities.
    Watch the video to know more about my experience with renting a flat in Edinburgh. I will tell you how I went trough the process of searching, applying for the apartment, signing the lease and also things you should know to avoid scammers.

    Excellently produced and informative video. It's difficult moving to a new city and finding a place to live, and Edinburgh has it's own challenges too. 👍

    I have rented 6 different properties in Edinburgh between 2007 and 2015, at that time it was fairly swift and cheap around 450£ for 1 bedroom flat in a good area. It's crazy what is now happening in UK's renting sector.

    • @codeandbird
      @codeandbird  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes agree it’s crazy. I hope some day I can just buy an apt and forget about it

    Tourism and Airbnb has destroyed Edinburgh. I lived there for 20+ years, but moved away 5 years ago to Glasgow. Best decision I ever made.

    Been 2 months since I moved to Edinburgh....
    I absolutely love the city, my job, everything...
    But the housing really pisses me off...
    Still looking for a place to settle...
    I'm like why doesn't the council put a limit to the UoE on how many students it can accept...
    Normal people need a place to stay as well...

    In a similar situation looking for an apartment in Switzerland 🥲 House -hunting is so much better in the Balkans, I already miss it.

      That’s true, in the Balkans almost every family has few spare apartments… 😅 I wish you luck with your search!

    The whole UK renting market is like that. Soon, they'll be asking for blood and stool samples.

      Yes it’s terrible. I hope to buy some day. And end the suffering :)

    They don't need to invest in updating their websites when the demand is so high that they still have no issue finding tenants.
