Private Rental costs around the country

[Floopyfloop]

We have lived in private rentals for 25 as we have never managed to purchase.

The cost of rentals in our town absolutely beggars belief! I live in a town that is badly in need of redevelopment.

Using rightmove…. Tell me the nearest town to where you life and the cost to rent a mid quality 3 bedroom family house. (No fancy houses)

I am genuinely intrigued as to what the variance will be.

Also tell me if your town or city is a tourist area or dormitory town for a large city.

I live in Godmanchester (next to Huntingdon) Its a town but feels more like a village - quite a 'desirable' area. A lot of people commute to London, as I did once upon a time.
The nearest 'big' towns are Cambridge and Peterborough.
There's only one 3 bed for rent at the mo and its a semi detached for £1100.

Dont really wanna say where I am as its a small town. But in the North. 2 bed £395

East London not many whole houses around here but 2200-5000 a month for a 3 bed, it's quite a variance as some streets will be dodgy as fuck or not well served by the tube etc.

£1,350 one bed garden flat in Brighton.

Inner city Nottm, £900 (terraced)

Suburbs. £1350 semi.

There is only one three bed available on my town (which has surprised me),
it’s nice but the kitchen is tiny and I think looks more suited to a couple that WFH than a family. It’s £900pcm.
The two beds are all around £800

Central Scotland, a lot of commuting into Edinburgh but I wouldn't say it is a dormitory town.

The only 3 bedroom was a flat for £850pcm, possibly commanding a higher price since it is 0.1miles from the mainline train station. I'm completely shocked at how high it is, prices have more than doubled in a few years.

I was looking at 2 beds last week and there was a beautiful little seafront cottage for £600.

East of England London commuter belt average about £1800 for a 3 bed house. Cheapest £1700 priciest £2100

Belfast - very street sensitive to pricing but from £950- £1200 for a standard 3 bed in a not rough area.
Cheaper areas start from £600 but you'd do anything not to live there!
