Information
- Accreditation
- We strongly advise all students to choose Accredited properties. Here we provide information about the Accreditation Scheme, and why you should insist on it.
- Community Relations
- This guide brings together some advice on how you can make your stay amongst local communities mutually pleasant.
- Contracts
- When you rent a property you will be entering into a contract, often known as a tenancy agreement. This will lay down your rights and responsibilities as well as the landlord’s rights and responsibilities. When you sign a tenancy agreement you will probably be binding yourself to the property for a year, so it’s important to check everything is above board before you do so.
- Deposits
- Many students are concerned about getting their deposits back at the end of their tenancies, so we've put together some guidance on steps you can take to maximise your chances of getting your deposit back.
- Finding Accommodation
- There are several different types of accommodation available to students. This series of guidance presents some of the options available to you, and how to find suitable properties.
- Safe and Secure
- We have provided this series of guidance to provide some general advice on keeping safe and secure in rented property, but it cannot cover every eventuality. If you are unsure about anything with your house, particularly if you are concerned for your safety, get advice urgently.
