desperately need to find a tenant for the upstairs double room. I already have an advert on spareroom and gumtree. Any other sites worth paying money for? Looking at openrent at the moment

I think those are the main ones. If you're really desperate, lowering the price is always an option.0

Amazin said: desperately need to find a tenant for the upstairs double room.If you are a live-in landlord, you do not ever want to refer to a lodger as a tenant. Nor do you want a contract that confers all the rights of a tenant on what would otherwise be an "excluded occupier". Choose your terms carefully.I half heartedly stuck an ad up on spareroom and had interest shown about every other day - Not being desperate, I could afford to be choosy. Most didn't get past the FO button... If you are not fussed by the quality of the lodger/tenant, pitch your price at the lower end of the market.Her courage will change the world.

SpareRoom has the market sewn up, at least where I am in London.The exception is that there are a few Facebook groups that are extremely popular which are used by flatmates to find replacement flatmates in houseshares. However they probably wouldnd't accept adverts from live-in-landlords.Still, you might find there's a more general Facebook group for your local area where you could post?0

I was going to say local selling groups on FB and market place have property rentals and lodger adverts.Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.1
