How I did it: I asked the universe for a property to suit my needs. That evening i received an email back from some i'd sent an enquiry to from a lady letting me know that this house had the perfect space for my pets, for me to live and it was absolutely stunning. Far nicer than the house i had been owning prior. It's just a case of looking on websites for private landlords that are letting property if you can't go through the agencies due to credit problems and most landlords are fine providing you can pay a full deposit and first week or months rent in advance.

Lessons & tips: I did hesitate- and someone else viewed and agreed to pay the deposit- Fortunately they pulled out the next day, but i was lucky! I already new it was the right house- yes there was a couple of things i thought i could improve on , like maybe an extra room and a fenced in garden, but it had everything i needed!!! Lesson i learnt is not to hesitate- give the landlord what they want and grab the keys if it's the house for you :)) I did see another house- i didn't think i would be happy there, it was bigger and had what i needed, but it's never worth sacrificing your dream for something that is not quite right. You will know when the house you want arrives- you feel it in your gut!!  Good luck everyone x

Resources: Private Landlords- My credit file is awful so couldn't go through the traditional right move and other agencies who want background checks- try renting privately if you have any problems- make sure you get a tenancy agreement that expresses the notice period of two months.
