Can I leave early and get the remainder of my rent back?

Unfortunately, you are committed under the tenancy agreement to pay the full rent, but please speak to us if you would like to leave your tenancy early! We may have a waiting list of people that would like to take over your tenancy which would then relinquish you from your contract. We cannot refund your rent until you have found someone to replace your tenancy.

This is completely dependent on whether the room you have booked is available. Please contact the Student Lettings Administration team to get more information.

Absolutely, you can either book an appointment or drop by our show apartment for a tour of our communal space and a studio.

Do you allow couples to stay?

We love having couples live in our studios and its ideal if you want to share the rent with someone. There is a slight difference in price to cover the additional usage of electricity and water, internet and wear and tear to the studio and communal space. The deposit remains at 350 between you, so only 175 each.

Do I have to share my kitchen/bathroom in a studio?

Not at all! All our self-contained studios have an ensuite bathroom and kitchen area within the apartment. There is a communal student area outside of your studio that has individual and group study spaces, pool tables, gym facility and relaxation and social zones for you to enjoy whenever you need a break from university work!

As a disabled person I have specific requirements for my living needs, can you cater for these?

We make every effort to ensure that our accommodation is accessible for all and we will always do everything we can to find you suitable accommodation. All buildings have step-free/level access. We can provide information on the availability of disabled parking for customers, there are accessible WCs in the communal areas for visitors and a hearing loop at reception. Adaptations can be made to our studios including grabrail provision in bathrooms, stair lifts in accessible duplex apartments, visual fire alarms and assisted door opening devices if required. If you have any specific accessibility requirements, please contact the Student Services team on 020 3096 1717 or drop us an email Information can also be made available in alternative formats e.g. large print and braille.

A guarantor is someone over the age of 18 who takes joint financial responsibility for your tenancy and is liable to pay your rent if you are, for any reason, unable to pay an amount owed to the property management group. You will need to name a guarantor when you make your booking if you select to pay by two or four instalments. This person will need to agree to be your guarantor and sign the tenancy paperwork. We have the right to pursue this person for recovery of outstanding monies so it is important your guarantor understands their liability.

Who needs a guarantor?

Only students that select to pay by instalments needs to have a guarantor and it only has to be UK-based if you opt for four instalments.

Who can be a guarantor?

Anybody over the age of 18 and based in the UK who does not live in a property can be guarantor for four instalment payments. Anybody over the age of 18 and based internationally that does not live in a property can be guarantor for two instalment payments.
