How to find a house without visiting

4 replies

Dears, we are currently abroad and planning to move to UK in July this year.
My daughter will go to JAGS and I am now looking for a house to move in. We will
be renting the place for now. But I don't know the city well and I am finding it difficult to put an offer on the house without visiting them. But considering the lockdown in my country, I can not visit before mid or end June.
So is there a website which tells about the crime rate of an area and how secure is it for families? Currently I like the house in water mews, Nunhead. If somebody has the experience of that area, it would be really helpful. Thanks a lot.

that part of Nunhead is good, Brockley and east Dulwich .
virtual viewing might help

Also use Google maps to 'satellite view' the area, you can see railway lines, major roads, factories, tips etc. and the streetview option to navigate and look around adjacent streets.
