Heron Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 ... I'm just curious more than anything else...how much would you recommend you would need to be earning in order to rent your own flat? I appreciate it depends on the area you want to live in and size of the place, etc. Please take all things into consideration too like food, water, etc, as I am trying to get a good idea for the near future.

Heron Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 At least £500 per month plus rent. So say £600 if you found somewhere cheap and decent enough? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfast Boy Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 At least £500 per month plus rent. So say £600 if you found somewhere cheap and decent enough? Well that would depend on how big a cardboard box you are looking for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 At least £500 per month plus rent. So say £600 if you found somewhere cheap and decent enough? I'd expect 'decent' to cost much more than £100 per month. Try tripling it at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are moving in with other people he said... Just thought I would ask for other peoples advice too. I trust my Dad like... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Snrub Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 You're defo safer moving in with at least 1 other person. To live on your own in a reasonable place (around 100 p/w) you'd need to be taking home at least a grand a month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 One thing I will say...you'll go out less and spend less if you move in with friends. Basically, it feels like going out just by meeting in the living room. Its fucking brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocker Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I live with four other lads in a huge place in Tynemouth. We pay 300 a month, all inclusive. We even pitched in and got ourselves a hot-tub for the bitches ( not for the hay romps, as I expect will be hinted at) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
