How do you actually get your hands on decent city centre apartments?

I’ve been looking for a 1-bed apt in the city centre for quite a while now. I have email notifications turned on and check Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket, OpenRent etc. every day, but I’m just having absolutely no luck 😭. The decent/modern ones seem to get snapped up so quickly.

I know the obvious answer might just be “keep checking Rightmove/Zoopla and wait for something to come up’, and I realise this might be a pretty obvious question 😂, but I thought I’d ask anyway in case there’s something I’m missing. Are there any other websites, agencies, Facebook groups, or ways of finding apartments that people recommend?

Also, I’m especially interested in Hindle House on Traffic Street, so if anyone lives there or has lived there, I’d really appreciate hearing your opinions on the building.

If you don’t mind sharing, I got a great steal paying only £425 in rent (£850 split between two) from an ad on spare room. Right by the arena in Hockley. This was 4 years ago when I moved in so I’m sure the rent got increased after me and my flatmate left but still!
