  • I need London house advice.

    I've never lived or worked there. Never wanted to. But life changed inthe last 12 months and I'm rather more free to move around now. A good company want to talk to me, which means there's the possibility of moving to/working in London. But I know zip about London except that it's expensive.

    Basically I need advice on areas to check out rent/mortgage costs. Could I buy a 1-2 bed flat for less than 350k? If so, what areas would be ok to live in without a bullet proof vest?
    (potential work being north of the river, north to north east)

  • I have a spacious two-bed on zone 3/4 boundary that will - when I get round to actually doing anything about it - sell for around £290k. There are still cheap pockets around. Some are cheap because they're awful, and some are cheap because it's a bit of a pain to get to work. Go for the latter and cycle and you're well away...

  • I have no idea what Zone 3 or 4 is. Are they the ones where Katniss is from? But yeah, that sounds good. ie - I think I'd be looking to cycle.
