Is there a site where landlords advertise direct?

Hi,
We are hoping to move soon (contract is now on periodic), and would really like to rent from a landlord direct rather than an agent.
We are both professionals, still willing to be credit checked/referenced etc but would ideally like to avoid the ridiculous fees of london letting agents.
Does anyone know of any sites where landlords advertise direct? Gumtree seems to have too many scams to sift through, and i've the list on the NLA site but all of the listings seem to be really old?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks,
Lizzie

Hi Lizzie,
If you go into spareroom.co.uk enter your area and then go to more advanced options, they do sometimes have 1 and 2 bed properties advertised from private landlords.0 -
Google "private landlords london" and a whole list comes up
Also try the *local* LL association, and see if the Council holds a list of accredited PRS LLs0 -
thanks for your replies
the problem with googling is i just found a perfect flat... for a perfect price
available: feb 2006
