About Us

Finding housing in London is tough.

As students ourselves, we experienced the challenges of finding housing firsthand, from understanding neighborhoods to avoiding scams. We believe that finding a home away from home should be easy and accessible for all students.

That’s why we created this guide: to develop a shared database of what we’ve learned and help make the process easier for others.

HouseWestern is packed with everything you need to know to navigate London:

  • Neighborhood breakdowns, highlighting safety, affordability.
  • Tips for negotiating leases and understanding rental contracts.
  • Guides to avoid rental scams and find trusted landlords.
  • Furniture recommendations and budgeting advice for your space.

All tailored specifically for Western University students.
