There's lots of estate agents around and the one I'd recommend are Pearce and Alder in Botley - very friendly with nice houses in the more residential area of the city. Finders Keepers are good but some are definitely worth avoiding - generally the more studenty ones.

Finders Keepers are very friendly. Keep in mind though that they will stab you in the back if you have pets.

Housing in Oxford is pretty expensive compared to other cities in the UK. Especially if you want to live anywhere in the city centre, you will have to be prepared to pay accordingly! The areas to find the cheapest housing are Kidlington, Cowley, Blackbird Leys, etc. The parts of the city on the outskirts.
