Is there a cancellation policy?
If you have paid a holding payment and then decide to not rent the property then you will not be bound an agreement. The holding payment is only refundable in a situation where they have to withdraw the property from you.
After Signing An Agreement
If you have signed the agreement you are bound by the terms of it and from the start of the tenancy you will be liable for the rent in the agreement.
However if you still need to end the agreement you can do so by finding someone to take the agreement over from you. Once they have signed up you will no longer be liable fr your part of the agreement.
They can help find someone to take over an agreement, however make no promises to be able to and until such a point that a replacement resident is found you remain liable for the rental payments.
How does the guarantor work?
It is important to note that they do not ask your guarantor to guarantee the rent for the whole property, only for you.
If you do not have a guarantor you can easily sign up with Housing Hand through their system, or they can discuss larger upfront rent payments.
What happens once I sign?
They will be in touch a few months out from move in with their resident guide and some other great tips before moving in.
Can I leave early and get the remainder of my rent back?
If you find a new resident, they’ll let you out of your agreement from the day they move in, and refund you any unused rent that you’ve paid in advance (minus a £50 admin fee)*.
They cannot refund your rent until you have found someone to take over your tenancy agreement, their booking is confirmed and they have paid the first instalment of their rent.
What is the payment schedule?
Their termly payments are usually due in the middle of October, January and April with a small payment due at the beginning of the contract prior to moving in.

What are iLoqs?
Their iLoqs are brand new technology from Finland utilizing battery free NFC technology.
Their digital locks mean that if you lose your phone, they can temporarily provide access to your locks to one of your housemates to ensure you aren’t locked out. This helps to avoid costly call out and locksmith charges for you if you were to lose a key.
The locks require an iPhone 7 and above to work, How do you know?
Make sure your phone is running the latest version if iOS
Android
You need to make sure your Android phone has NFC capabilities. Again, if you have the ability to use Android Pay then your phone will work
Make sure your Android phone is not rooted. The app can’t be installed on rooted phones as the device is exposed to security threats.
Make sure that your phone is running the latest available version of Android. Open the app on your phone
In the first instance when you open the app, please make sure you are connected to the internet so your phone can verify the permissions.
After this the key will work whether you have internet or not.
Press the “Tap to use the lock” button. You will receive a pop up telling you your phone is ready to scan.
Hold your phone up to the lock (for between 3 and 5 seconds usually) to unlock the door
– It is very important that you hold the right part of your phone up to the lock.
For iPhones you need to hold the top of the phone to the lock. This is because the NFC chip is at the top of the phone behind the speaker.
Unlocking the door
Once you have access simply grab the black disc and turn it to the left to unlock the door.
After that just use the handle as you normally would do.
Can I rent an individual room?
If you just want to rent a room individually they will work hard to try to assemble groups of like-minded people to let properties together.
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 residents will need to pay their first instalment of rent before they can release keys to any residents on joint contracts.
What if I am no longer a student?
What if I can't pay my rent?
Please note, if your payment is more than 21 days late and they have not heard from you, then late payment charges may be applied to your account.
Office opening hours?
If you have an emergency out of office hours, you can contact your Kin Keeper below. If you cause any damage beyond fair wear and tear either maliciously or by accident you will be responsible of the cost to the contractor to attend and remedy the situation.
What is an Emergency?
If a problem that you have reported is due to lack of care or misuse by you or other residents occupying the property, you will be charged for the cost of putting it right.
Their key holders do hold spare keys in case of an emergency maintenance issue. Their contractors may still need to gain access via residents to make the necessary repairs.
It is therefore in your best interest to be available for appointments made with contractors to ensure the repairs are carried out as quickly as possible.
Are there non-emergency maintenance?
The contractors will attend to complete emergency repairs only, further remedial works may be required in working hours following the call out.
Please ensure all non-emergency maintenance is reported through your property portal, or you can call the office during opening hours.
