London student accommodation tips!

My friend is studying in London later this month. She needs to rent a place around oval and Kennington. She’s struggling to find a 3rd person. Is it worth her finding 2 bed if she can’t find another person? Any recommendations on how to find other students? No one is getting in touch with her :frown: would like any advice asap please!!

sorry its kind of late but rent is cheap in the brentford/hammersmith/ealing area as someone who lives in sw london. 2 bed is very difficult to find but keep trying as its best way to pay for accomodation. but its VERY expensive in inner london in that area definately tell her to try rent a flat in hounslow area as is much cheaper however she will have to get train. to find house/ flat shares on website right move. many students are looking for places with roomates so put up posters in places with young ppl near unis, clubs etc.
