A couple of weeks ago, I got the plainest flat of them all, but it was at a killer price so I couldn't pass on it. I want to decorate the living room because space is huge and looks quite empty and not homey at all. I don't want to invest in furniture because it will be a pain to move out later on, so I'm thinking about those wall murals which are quite trendy lately. I like the sixth picture in this article: http://cargocollective.com/geoffsmith/Wall-Murals-for-Your-Home

My question.. actually, I have several of them:

1. Is there a renter-friendly way or a "model" which I can put on the wall;

2. Where can I find similar designs at a good price;

3. Do I need to ask for permission from the landlord if it's removable and does not damage his property?


Please help me on this, it's my first time as a tenant and I really want to have it all - live in a good looking flat and avoid landlord issues.

3. you would be foolish not to check or at least check the tenancy agreement for this type of clause - but if you are 100% that no damage will be incurred to the wall by the fixings etc I'm sure that would be fine - landlords expect that tenants will want to hang pictures


I'd be interested in the answers to 2 - we also have a large bare wall at home and are looking for ideas

    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
    • My initial thought was whether they would keep the East Dulwich Road site given how close they are - but then they've only just re-done it so I assume will be planning to run both. 
    • I hope witnesses are phoning 999 to report a crime in progress.
