Providing your booking is cancelled within this Initial Cancellation Period, we will refund your full security deposit.

Please note, refunding the deposit after cancelling the booking may take a number of weeks depending on where it is up to in the process of securing it with the tenancy deposit scheme, and we cannot influence the speed of this refund.

Cancelling after the Initial Cancellation Period (‘Cooling Off Period’)

If a tenant wishes to cancel the booking after the Initial Cancellation Period (‘Cooling Off Period’) has passed, the tenant remains liable for the rent for the whole length of the contracted tenancy until another tenant that is acceptable to the landlord is found and the room is able to be re-let.

IMPORTANT: Property management is under no obligation to enter into a Tenancy Agreement with any replacement tenant that is suggested by any existing tenant, or its representative or agent under this provision.

Rooms that are re-let to a new tenant will be at the current market rate, and not necessarily at the rate the room was previously sold at.

While we will always do what we can to assist, it is not the obligation of Property management or the landlord to find a replacement tenant to take over the tenancy.

If a suitable tenant is found and the room is re-let, we will refund the security deposit, less any appropriate charges, as well as a deduction of £50 for the variation of the contract. Please note, £20 will be deducted from the refunded amount to cover international bank charges for deposit refunds made to non-UK banks.

The tenant is responsible for ensuring the room is suitable to be re-let, and it must be in the same clean and lettable condition as it was when the tenant took occupation and that it is available for viewings to allow it to be re-let.

If a suitable tenant is found and the room is re-let, we will refund the security deposit, less any appropriate charges, as well as a deduction of £50 for the variation of the contract. No £50 charge will be made for tenancies coming to an end after any applicable legal notice period that applies under current legislation and the deposit will be refunded.

Heald Court, Manchester is the ideal accommodation for students who want to be close enough to the University and City Centre that it is easy to enjoy the city life and far enough away that you can relax away from the hustle and bustle of Manchester. The staff responsible for Heald Court do a good job, with the maintenance team quick to provide help as soon as possible whenever there is a problem, and the support staff pleasant and helpful to talk to. Over the year we have had several problems and they have always been prompt and pleasant with dealing with them. The atmosphere in Heald Court is mostly tranquil, ideal for studying or relaxing, another reason as a Postgraduate student I find it a good fit. The rooms are nice, with a good-sized en-suite and a lot of storage space, the communal areas are furnished and are mostly well equipped.

Spent two years living at Heald Court, the property is nice and well-kept. The location is central enough to walk into the city centre without being too noisy or crowded. The staff at Heald Court are lovely (in my experience), they will answer any query as quickly and as well as possible and the maintenance performed on the people is absolutely incredible! A top-notch place to stay, especially for students who don't know the area that well and want to make some new friends.
