30-year-old architect from Australia got the home she wanted for the budget of £200 per week – a 1-bed flat in Brackenbury Village, just beyond Shepherd’s Bush in west London. Telegraph reports:

“The rent was more than I could afford,” she says, “but Jo Eccles of the specialist property hunters Sourcing Property, negotiated hard and knocked £120 off the monthly rent. She also went through the inventory and managed to talk the landlord into putting in a new bathroom, together with all sorts of little things that needed doing. I love the flat, which is really spacious and extremely good value. Before I met Jo, I was looking at studios and didn’t think I could afford a one-bedroom.”

Sourcing Property charges a fee of £500 for two months’ search and the equivalent of one month’s rent (no less than £1,250) on success.
