Viewing
Check out our properties online and call or email us. We will then make the necessary arrangements and either email or call you to confirm times. We recommend that as many of your group as possible attend the viewing.
Reserve Property
Once you have decided as a group on the property you wish to rent, you will all need to sign the AST (Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement) and pay £100 - advance rent.. Only at that stage is the house reserved for you and you are legally committed. The house is then taken off the market.
The Contract
The AST is a legal document so we recommend that you read it thoroughly and ideally, have it checked out by your parent or guardian. Once you are happy to proceed, you will all need to sign the AST.
Deposit
We do NOT take a deposit. The payment of non refundable £100 per person advance rent will secure and reserve the property.
Admin Fees
We do NOT take admin fees.
Guarantor
Each person will be required to complete a “tenant information form” with their personal details, name, email address, mobile number etc. and also to provide the name of a guarantor (usually parent or close relative) who will guarantee the tenant’s performance under the terms and conditions of the AST during the tenancy period. We will then write to that person asking them to sign the appropriate form.
Rent
The termly rent as per the AST will need to be paid on the dates the student loans are received. The tenant is required to set up the payment arrangement via online banking and we will require confirmation that this has been done.
Utility costs
The rent includes all utility costs - gas, electricity, water, fast 350Mbps Virgin broadband and TiVo package. A flat screen TV and TV License is also provided.
Key collection
We will email you all in advance with the arrangements for the day your tenancy commences. We will meet you at the house when you move in.
Property Handbook
Prior to the start of your tenancy we will email you with some helpful information which contains virtually all you will need to know about the house and is an excellent reference both before and during your tenancy.
