no need to be condescending
What type of areas are you willing to consider moving to?
Are you looking to rent a room with ensuite in a houseshare, a studio or a 1 bedroom flat?
Are you looking to rent a room with ensuite in a houseshare, a studio or a 1 bedroom flat?
You need to consider every outgoing: rent, utilities, furniture, soft furnishings, kitchen equipment, travel, food, toiletries, laundry and cleaning products, work clothes and shoes.
List isn't endless or necessarily all applicable. However, you'll need a job to get a deposit and sufficient proof of income to rent, so how do you fund the expenses associated with that until you find suitable accommodation? It's a vicious circle...

I have no preference as long as its an ensuite, my biggest concern is cost, I'm willing to relocate but I am not sure if I want to leave the city

I will be working full time, I have no costs at home right now, I hope to find a place that's already furnished, I don't intend to rent a flat but a room so I'm wondering what a reasonable cost for a room (bills inc.) would be in case I am taken advantage of

VapourDave- define condescending when the OP clearly didn’t understand the basis of the question, and thanks me?

With all due respect, I appreciate what vapour said because the tone of your reply did rub me the wrong way and didn't address my question once I provided clarification
However it doesn't matter since I wasn't clear and I've thanked you for correcting my poor word choice

Just look on zoopla or something to see how much a room in a shared house in London costs.
The answer generally though is "a lot".

I live in London, not a student at the moment but planning to resume school in a couple years. For now I just need to move out since my parents and I aren't on good terms. How much should i be paying for an ensuite in London pcm? I don't want to be exploited and want to find an appropriate job to fund this, I aim to move next year. I'll be living like this for about 2 years before maybe starting uni in 2025.
I mean, London is bloody huge. Which zone? Which area? If you are willing to move as far as Zone 6 then you are looking around £550-750 for an en-suite depending on how modern and large the room is.
Check Spareroom.

OK thank you I will check there, and yes I'm not too fussed about the zone but I'll need to find a job and do some calculations I suppose

Yes. It's a fine balance to strike between cheaper rent in the outer zones vs the cost of travel into central London. Good luck.
