Legally once you hit 18 you can rent your own flat, since that's when you are legally able to sign a lease contract. However being able to rent and actually renting are two different things. Most landlords do credit checks amount the things they look for when renting and at the age of 18 your credit is most likely nonexistent.

Generally speaking, in this case you need to find someone with good credit to cosign your lease or find a room mate that has good credit. There are some places that will rent to those without credit but they are few and far between. You best bet would to look at apartments that rent to students.
