Where to look for apartment rentals in london, uk?

Hello, I am moving to London, UK, and I was wondering what is the most popular online rental search channel that is used by common people. I tried craigslist, but I am not sure that it is the right place. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

1. it is gumtree.com
2. Craigslist is not very popular in the UK, I would recommend: http://www.gumtree.com/ http://www.fish4.co.uk/iad/lettings/result/?searchKey=SEARCH_ID_LETTINGS&sort=0&LOCATION=INNER%20LONDON&areaId=22584 http://www.loot.com/property/rent House/flat sharing is very common as prices are usually very high http://uk.easyroommate.com/search/London-flatshare.htm Always check that the place is actually in London by entering the postcode in Google maps or similar. To give you an idea, the most common postcodes start with: W for West London E for East London N for North London S for South London The closer you are to the city centre, the more you will see combinations like WC or EC. Sometimes you will see other alternatives such as SW. This site might also be useful to ensure the price you are given is not a rip-off http://www.workgateways.com/working-cost-of-living.html Good luck!
