If you are planning on searching for your own accommodation in Bristol here are a few things to consider:

 

You will have to pay bills, including tax, gas, water, electricity… as well as rent, deposit and fees (most agencies charge a fee).

 

Beware of Scams & Dishonest Landlords

If you are searching for accommodation independently, please be careful.

Never give out any bank details, or send money before you have viewed the property and signed a contract.

Do not sign a contract if you are unsure of anything written in it or you are worried about anything it says
