Concerned with accommodation in London

I am a student in Northumbria University London Campus and struggling to find a affordable dorm room to rent. I am currently living in East London without rental agreement and this worries me since I didnt know about the rental agreements when I moved in. My renter refuses to give me a rental agreement now and it is getting harder and harder for me to survive since my other housemates are focused on partying all night and I work early mornings so it hampers my daily sleep. Any suggestions?

Hi there @ShamsWazed ,
are you currently looking to move out?
It can be quite expensive to rent in London and the rental market is fast moving. In addition to keeping your eye on listings on platforms like Open Rent, Spare Room and Right Move, you can try asking around to see if any of your university peers or seniors are moving out or looking for a new flat mate 🙂
I hope this helps.

Use Rentaros, i have used last week and find a rental pretty easy, they have large database of home rentals, just you need to pay 2.99gbp to access the landlord contact numbers. But i think it worth. Here link: https://rentaros.co.uk/
