Frequently Asked Questions

Can I end my contract early?

You are committed under your tenancy agreement to pay the full contracted rent, unless you can find someone to take over the remainder of your contract and there are at least 6 months remaining on your tenancy agreement.

Can I move in earlier than my contract start date?

You will not be able to move in before the start date of your tenancy.

Is Wi-Fi provided and how fast is it?

Wi-Fi is provided in all of their accommodation and is accessible in each room of the property. Your WiFi access is included in your monthly rent. The average speed they try to offer is 300MBPS, however, please note that due to the nature of Wi-Fi speeds may vary depending on proximity to the router, the nature of the usage and the number of devices connected at any one time. You can check the speed of your WiFi at any time via their customer portal which has instructions on how to do so. If you would like to know specifics about WiFi provision at one of their properties, please ask your point of contact in the Lettings Team.

What is a guarantor?

This is someone who is willing to guarantee your rent payments on your behalf. This is standard practice with student rental properties due to your employment status. A guarantor is signing the tenancy agreement confirming that they are guaranteeing your obligations in the contract.

What happens if I do not want to live in my property after I signed the contract?

In order to exit your contract you will need to find a replacement tenant to take your room, but only if there is more than 6 months remaining on your contract. The rest of your group will need to agree to this person. Once this is done they can reissue a new contract for everyone to sign. Until the new contract is signed by all parties (all Tenants, all Guarantors and the Landlord) you are legally contracted and obliged to pay your rent.

How do I pay my rent?

They request that all tenants pay rent via Direct Debit. However, payment can be made over the phone, via their website, bank transfer or standing order. Please note there may be a 72 hour delay from making the payment to the payment showing on your tenant portal. They accept Mastercard and Visa.

Are there any fees and deposits?

No, there are no fees and no deposits to pay. Holding retainers have reduced by 75% from £200 to £50 for a limited time only. The £50 holding retainer paid to reserve your property will be deducted from your first month’s rent. For a limited time only, the holding retainer for property in Stoke and Huddersfield has been reduced to £10.

What can I do if I don’t have a guarantor?

If you do not have a UK-based guarantor, you can either use housing which will act as a guarantor on your behalf or you can pay all of your rent in one annual upfront payment.

Why must my guarantor be UK-based?

Property laws are different outside of the UK. This means that it is not possible for your guarantor to be based elsewhere.

When do I need to return everything by?

Your holding retainer reserves the house for 3 working days. In this time you will need to fill in your tenancy form and upload your documents. You will then be sent the tenancy agreement.

Where do I send my tenancy document to?

After signing your agreement online it will automatically send them a copy so there is nothing you need to do apart from sign.

What do I do If I don’t understand the tenancy agreement?

Do not sign the agreement if you do not understand. On page 3 of the contract, there are definitions that should help explain anything that is not clear. You can also give them a call or email the team. Your university should be able to advise you if there is anything you need to clarify.

What does joint and several liability mean?

Joint and several liability means that both individually and jointly all of the tenants are individually and jointly responsible for paying rent and for all other tenants’ responsibilities during the tenancy.

How do I sign the tenancy agreement?

You will be sent your tenancy agreement via email. There are clear instructions when you open the document, please ensure you sign your first and last name (no initials).

How do I get my tenancy agreement sent to me?

After paying the holding retainer they ask you to fill out a tenant details link that they email over to your whole group. When this is done they send out the tenancy agreement via email.

How long is the property tenancy?

Their standard tenancy length is 52 weeks unless you are taking one of their houses which is being refurbished (these tenancies are often slightly shorter).

But what about administration fees?

They have no admin fees!! They’re unnecessary and dated and stop you from getting the most for your money.

How do I know if my group has the house?

Your group will only have the house once all the tenancy details forms have been completed, a contract has been sent out, all tenants and guarantors have signed, all remaining retainers have been paid and all identification for tenants and guarantors received. Then the landlord will contract the property and you will be notified of this by email.

I want to view a property, what do I do?

Make an enquiry on the property website and book a viewing using their online booking platform. All people viewing a property must wear a mask and santisie their hands before entering the property and on departure. All attendants must adhere to social distancing and avoid physical contact with surfaces, furnishings and personal belongings on the property.

I have viewed a property and want to live there, what do I do?

You call the office to pay one £200 holding Retainer. This reserves the property for you and gets the ball rolling. The holding retainer is non-refundable but is deducted from the first month’s rent of the person who paid it. Each of the other members of the house will also need to pay a £200 holding retainer within 2 days after the tenancy agreement is signed.

Why and how often will management visit/inspect my accommodation?

Their caretakers will attend every month to carry out health and safety checks on your property to test the fire alarm and emergency lights. They will notify you in advance of when this will be. Your property Manager or a member of the management team will carry out inspections every term. The reason for these inspections is to check all is well in the properties and look for any required works- also it is great to meet their tenants throughout the year!

How do I prevent pests (rats and insects) in my accommodation?

Here are some quick points that can prevent pests: 

· Try and make a habit of cleaning up immediately after meals. Wash all dishes, wipe down tables or counters, and store leftovers in airtight containers. Cleaning up quickly prevents pests from making their way onto dirty dishes or uncovered foods. 

· When possible, buy food that comes in cans or jars. Pests like insects and rodents can easily chew through plastic, paper and cardboard. 

· Keep more food in the refrigerator or freezer. Few insects and rodents can make their way into these appliances (some food lasts longer when cool). 

· ALWAYS CLEAN! The kitchen needs to be cleaned more often than other areas of the home. Even the tiniest of crumbs can attract pests. Be mindful of brushing away crumbs and sanitising tables and countertops after any type of food prep. Sweep away anything that hits the floor. 

· Take out the rubbish as soon as it’s needed. Allowing rubbish to sit in the kitchen only invites pests over for dinner.· Keep your cabinets clean! It is important to inspect your cabinets regularly for exposed food, crumbs or signs of a pest invasion.

My Dishwasher isn’t working, what should I do?

Dishwashers need salt and rinse aid regularly- the filter also needs to be kept clean and clear of debris as this will cause blockages.

My tumble dryer is broken, what should I do?

Tumble dryers need to be emptied of fluff on a regular basis, not emptying this will cause the unit to overheat and not work correctly.

There is mould in my house what do I do?

Condensation mould forms when there is too much moisture in the air and it hits a cold surface.If the mould reoccurs after you have removed it and you are not drying clothes inside please report it as an issue so they can investigate.

The extractor fan is not working in my bathroom?

There will be an isolation switch outside the bathroom – please ensure this is turned on before reporting as maintenance.

Accommodation shower is flooding / not draining when they use it what should they do?

If your shower is blocked do not continue to shower with it running over the top, as this will cause a leak and damage to the house. You need to unblock showers regularly and ensure the plug is free from hair.

My washing machine door won’t open and my clothes are stuck inside – what should I do?

This often happens when the door is attempted to be opened before the door has unlocked after the cycle. Always wait 5 minutes before trying to open the door. If this is the case and it has been forced open this may be something that will require repairs that they may not cover the cost of. Sometimes, the washing machine will have a drain function, so please use this if possible before opening the door using a piece of string.

Accommodation rubbish isn’t being collected – why is this?

Please ensure that you are disposing of your household waste correctly and putting it out on the correct day (preferably the night before as this ensures collection, a lot of students aren’t up at 9 am!). You can search online when collection days are/what you can and can’t put in each bin. *This is important as the council reserves the right to refuse collection if the rubbish is disposed of incorrectly* If you think you need more council bins, please let them know and they can put in a request. You can find information on bin collections on your council website.

The property has received multiple emails about when a contractor is attending to a maintenance issue: which one is correct?

Always listen to the most recent email. Unfortunately, their maintenance team may have to attend to emergency problems which can take priority over your maintenance, hence them rescheduling the visit date.

Property power has gone out in their house: what should they do?

Firstly check with your neighbours to see if this is an area fault. You can also check on the national grid; you can check on this website. There may be something that has caused the electricity to trip inside the house. You can check the fuse box and identify what has caused the outage. Often these can be re-engaged 

– please do not force switches up 

– if they cannot be re-engaged or the issue repeats itself please report as maintenance.

What is the best way to report maintenance?

For general maintenance, reporting it through the Portal will mean that the issue is resolved as quickly as possible for you.

What is the fair usage policy and what does it mean?

It is important to remember that your energy usage is not unlimited. You will be responsible for any additional costs if you exceed your allowance.

Where can I find the company bank details?

Bank details can be found on their Tenant Portal.

Can I pay my rent by Direct Debit?

They request that all tenants pay their rent via Direct Debit. All tenants will receive information regarding the set-up process once the tenancy agreement is fully signed.

How is my monthly/quarterly rent calculated?

Are bills included in my rent?

Some properties may have electricity and gas included, please refer to their viewing booking platform (link sent to you after submitting an enquiry) or speak to the team for further information.

I’ve paid a retainer; does this amount get deducted from my first rental payment?

What is the best way for me to pay my rent?

When do I need to pay my rent?

If you believe you will have difficulty paying on these dates or would like to align you rental payments with your student loans then please contact them to discuss this. Please note that all tenants will need to pay their first instalment of rent before they can release keys to any tenants on joint contracts.
