Question 1

Answer

Question 2

Do I have to be a student to live in this accommodation?

Answer

Yes, their accommodation in each city is designed for full and part-time students only.

Question 3

Can I secure an apartment with my friends?

Answer

Definitely! Once you have completed the booking process online, make sure to get in touch with property directly to outline your preference and to let them know who you want to room with. Their aim when placing people together is always to match like minded people – considering your university, course, and age as well as any other special requests.

Question 4

Can I secure a room for one term?

Answer

Generally, their tenancies are for full years. If a shorter term agreement is something you are seeking or need to discuss, please get in touch with us directly to see if your needs can be accommodated.

Question 5

How do I pay my rent?

Answer

Once your booking has been completed, they will send you an invitation email which will allow you to set up your rent payments.

All rent payments can be arranged in a number of ways to make budgeting as easy as possible for you. Some of their tenants pay a lump sum at the start of each term, while others pay in instalments – it is up to you to decide which works best for you.

They advise residents to set up a local currency Direct Debit to avoid fees, remove the stress of payment deadlines and to ensure that you never miss a rent payment.

Question 6

Are your rooms suitable for disabled access?

Answer

Their apartments are built to be as inclusive and accessible as possible, with specific rooms and living arrangements designed to facilitate and support those with all manner of disabilities. They understand that finding the right accommodation can be daunting for those living with disabilities, so please get in touch so they can discuss your individual needs directly and make sure that all your needs are catered for.

Question 7

Do I need a guarantor to secure a room?

Answer

A guarantor is the best way to protect your place with them if things get tough, especially if you are struggling to pay your rent. If you are paying in instalments, then they do ask that you provide a guarantor or appoint a Housing Hand as your guarantor.

If you are paying your rent upfront in a single lump sum, a guarantor is not required.

Question 8

Can I change my payment plan part way through my tenancy if something happens?

Answer

They are no stranger to bad days or tough months –They've all been there, and they've all wished that the person at the other end of the phone was a little more understanding. Because of this, and in an effort to make their agreements as flexible as possible for their residents and students, if something occurs – like an emergency payment you have to make elsewhere, or your student loan doesn’t arrive on time – simply get in touch to discuss the situation with them directly. They can then amend your payment plan if required, to help you out.

Question 9

Can I sub-let my room?

Answer

No, this practice is banned for the duration of your tenancy.

Question 10

Can I have visitors, and can they stay over?

Answer

They do ask that those living in shared apartments or studios refrain from having more than one guest at any time, and that you keep overnight stays to a maximum of two nights per week. Visitors also need to sign in at reception and sign out when they leave, to assist them in the event of a fire evacuation. In addition, please note that their visitor policy can be amended at any time.

Question 11

Can I keep a pet?

Answer

Sorry, they don’t allow pets in their accommodation unless they are approved assistance or disability dogs.
