Hey guys
The time has come for me to start looking for a place to rent near my new job in North Wales. The likes of Rightmove and Zoopla are the main ones and full of houses for rent with the usual estate agents and their rip off fees. What other sites are worth checking out and is there any that landlords use without the stupid agency fee's? I found OpenRent website but there is not much on there.
Any others worth using? Gumtree has very little. What about groups on Facebook is there anything worthwhile on there?
Many thanks.

You can look at spare room, but in all likelihood rightmove or zooplankton will have the vast majority of properties.
Most landlords use a letting agent because they’ll do the donkey work. So you’re searching a small market, made smaller by a specific and largely unurban area.0 -
