Number one daughter and her partner are flat hunting in London. Does anyone have any contacts or ideas? Their budget is £300 per week max. Daughter works in Hammersmith. Partner in Canary Wharf.
Well my husband commuted for a year or so to Canary Wharf so it is doable - it's just not ideal. I think I've throen away this week's property paper but I'll try to pick one up on Monday.
You could try this.Avoid Ham there are no transport links. Twickenham is cheaper as is Kew. Richmond is easier because it has the underground and overland service. Lichfield Court is usually quite good value and is close to the station and v central for shops. I've looked at lots of flats there.
If she wants me to meet her and take her round a few places I could. I've lived in the area for twenty years.
