In short: Three-bedroom houses suit families and groups of sharers. They're easier to find and better value in outer zones with good transport, such as parts of Walthamstow, Croydon, Ealing, Bexley and Barnet. If three unrelated sharers rent together, check whether the borough requires an HMO licence. At viewings, check the heating, damp, garden upkeep responsibilities, parking and the condition of bathrooms and kitchen.
