Hey all,

A bit of advice would be really helpful here. Will be moving back up to Sheffield sometime next year and already thinking about what I can afford rent wise. I'm currently in London and paying £715 per month but it's likely I will take a pay cut up North and so i'm looking for lower rent.

Now, scanning through estate agent's websites like Spencers/Winkworths/Blundells etc it looks like the average rent for a 2 bed house/conversion is around £450 - £500 in a half decent area. What I need to know is whether this is a fair relection of 'real' prices or a scam to get you in to that agent's office? Also, has the trend down here in London of bidding a rental price taken off in Sheffield?

Any help much appreciated.

My landlord has been trying to find a tennant to replace me for three weeks.

Id say the advertised rent is a starting point.
My pal also recently rented a place that had been empty for 4 months at 75% of advertised rent.

Does that help?
