If you're thinking about moving to Sheffield or already live here and are unsure on where to live or who to live with, we highly recommend considering a flatshare as your accommodation. It's a great way to save money, make friends, and experience all that Sheffield has to offer.

Here are some additional tips for finding a good flatshare in Sheffield:

  • Start your search early. The best flatshares tend to go quickly, so it's important to start looking as soon as you know you're moving to Sheffield.
  • Use a reputable flatshare website. There are a number of websites that specialize in flatshares such as Spare Room or RoomGo. These websites can help you find a flatshare that meets your needs and budget.
  • Be clear about your expectations. When you move into a flat share be sure to be clear with your housemates about your expectations. This includes things like your cleaning habits, your noise level, and your guests policy.
  • Use online tours. Most landlords now have online tours of their properties allowing you to view remotely and get an idea as to whether the property would be a good fit for you
  • Be prepared to compromise. You may not be able to find a flatshare that meets all of your needs, so be prepared to compromise on some things.
