How much do people pay on rent each month

[Gin96]

After the thread on how much is your mortgage, just wondered what everyone pays on rent each month and which area?

@thegreylady wow what a great contribution to the thread, your post was so useful...

£600 per month for a room in a shared two bed flat. South East (Kent).

£385 per four weekly. Modest 3 bed semi with a modest front and back garden in NE England. HA, so in major need of renovation. I've been here a year and am still saving for plastering/carpets etc.

South West, 2 bed maisonette - £365 a month.

£1405 for three bed semi

Jersey social housing

£400PCM 3 bed terrace in Devon. Equivalent houses in the same road are rented for £600-800pcm however we rent from family for the cost of mortgage and insurance so get an absolute steal. It's an amazing place to live and we would be in a much smaller property in a significantly worse part of the city within our budget.

We don't rent, thankfully, as it's very expensive in our northeast university city. The slightly smaller and rather damp version of our 3 bed semi, a few doors down, was up for rent for £950, last year.

£800 for a 4 bed house. Well below market rate - should be more like £1,100 but been here a while and we are good tenants so LL (so far) has not put rent up.

North West

Sheffield
Council 2 bed ground floor flat
Every 4 weeks £330

£800 pcm for a 3 bed detached with a garage in Shropshire.

£850 - 3 bed 2 bathroom terrace house on new housing development about 5 miles outside of large city, South East. Has a good garden.

I miss my £525 two bed cottage though

We've expatriated, but the last place we rented (3 years ago now) was £1600 for a 3 bed townhouse in zone 5.

Which was lovely right until I broke my leg and all of a sudden all of those stairs really weren't as nice.

£650pcm for a 3 bed semi detached house in north west Glasgow with a decent front and back garden.

£795 for a 2 bed terrace. Home counties. Its massively under market rent though.

525pm between my fiance and I in the Highlands for a 2 bedroom semi-detached house with garden and decking out the back. 20 minute drive to work.

£1100 for a 2 bed flat in SE London, paying under market value (should be £1200-1300). Left (trendy) NE London 6 years ago and our 1 bed was rented out for £1350 to the next tenants!

£800 for a big 3 bedroom house with massive garden in Urmston, south Manchester. Quite a low rent for the area and they accepted the dog

£1250 for 2 bed terrace in SE London zone 5- it's me, DH, DC1 aged 5 and baby

We rent from a friend so I think it's under the market rate, from what I see locally

To add- we have a tiny garden but just grateful for some outside space even if it's just patio and a patch of grass

If we wanted to buy this property or similar, the going rate for a 2 bed terrace round here is over £500k!

We definitely cannot afford that

@Turnedouttoes less than £700 for a room in zone 1 is really goodprice.

£1600 for 3 bed semi in zone 6 (south east)

Room in west London I was paying £850 bills included. Then 1bed flat in west London i paid £1300. 2bed flat in Kent £650, 2bed house in Kent £735

Privately rented 1 bedroom flat in a city centre location, £675 per month. Southeast area.

We rented until last year. We paid 800pcm for a large, 3 bed detached house. All double bedrooms, three bathrooms. That was in manchester.

We have bought but our mortgage is £475 per month over 25 years. Semi-detached. But as others have said, it depends on what area and location.

Should have also said it's a two bedroom, 1 bathroom, lounge and kitchen. Nothing fancy

NW £550 for 3 bed terrace
