Given a choice, all of us would like to rent somewhere in central London, with good transport links and in desirable areas but more often than not budget is the main restricting factor.

I find the book "London for Londoners" quite a good resource if you have not zoom in on a particular area in London to reside as yet. It gives a good breakdown of pros and cons of living in each area.

After you have decide on an area, I would recommend going to either rightmove.co.uk or zoopla.com to for a guideline of current rental prices. Approach gumtree.com if you don't mind renting from landlords direct, otherwise head to the area and look for property agents on the main thoroughfare. Good thing about agents is that you'll get to see a number of properties at once and all relevant paperwork will be done nicely.

Of course there are a number of things to look out for as well. I've written down some of them at http://www.singaporeaninlondon.com/2010/08/london-accommodation-tips-for.html. Might be of some help to you.

Hope that you'll find your property soon!

When you decide to travel to London for work bsucar knew this meant a place to stay.
I report many sites that I rented apartments, but did not want to invest much.
This is how through a friend knew of a place of cheap accommodation with service cheap bed and breakfast in london, and tell me I do not regret it at all choose this option, as they have quality, price and first class service.
It is difficult to rent for all apartments in foreign cities, which is why I recommend this type of information.
