Title: Is the UK experiencing a housing crisis similar to the Netherlands?
Post by: Michael83 on August 02, 2022, 06:04:36 am

To cut a long story short, I recently moved to the Netherlands and quickly discovered that the Dutch are experiencing an unprecedented housing crisis throughout their entire country, to the point where you can't even find a place to live even if you have the money because there simply isn't anything available.

I presently have two alternatives because I am likely to be homeless soon:

Resign and return home.

I am transferred to the company's UK subsidiary and must live in the UK.

Their offices are in London, however I can only work remotely from the United Kingdom (yeah I know weird policy).

So my issue is, can I find a place to live anywhere in the UK, regardless of location, for less than 500 GBP/Month in a studio, anywhere in the UK?

I visited Rightmove and it appears that there is plenty of houses available in that price range, but I wanted to know if there was anything I was overlooking.

This is a forum for new home buyers.
That said, IMO you would be lucky to get a bedsit for £500 a month rent.
