Can I view the accommodation before applying?

Of course! In fact we encourage you to come and have a look around. We may not be able to show you your exact room, but you can see the show flats we have available at each site. We also have lots of pictures and even 360 degree photos of different rooms on our website as we understand our students are from all around the world and it’s not always easy to visit the site!

Can you tell me what’s in the contract I would be signing?

When accepting a room with property you will need to sign an AST (assured shorthold tenancy). If you would prefer to see the contract before applying this isn’t a problem.

What is included in my rent?

All-inclusive utility bills, Wi-Fi and contents insurance are all included in your rent!

How and when do I pay my rent?

We offer two rent method options: Option 1 – Full Payment; Pay in full by the 1st of August and get money off your rent! 2% discount – Manchester, Liverpool, Bristol and Nottingham, and 5% discount- Newcastle. Option 2 – Pay in 3 different Instalments; September, January, and April – you can view the exact payment dates in your contract (this may be the best payment option for those looking to pay your rent using your student loan). Please note that to apply to pay by instalments, you must provide a UK-based guarantor who is aged 21 or over and in full-time employment. They’ll also need to annually earn at least 3 times your total rent amount, or be a homeowner.

How can I find out who I’m living with?

Curious about who your flatmates will be? We unfortunately can’t give out names but you can find out who is living at your site on our Facebook and Twitter pages.

Can I change my contract once I’ve signed it?

If you want to change things like your room type, contract length or anything else, just get in touch with us. We can then let you know if your request is possible, and if so, what the next steps would be.
