The first step is to Search Properties to find some that you might be interested in. You can search by size and Uni, or by street name or area. They are listed in price order so you can scroll to your preferred budget.
Found a property you want to take? Here are the next steps…
Step 1 - Check the Property Details
- Once you have found the property for you, double-check all the information in the advert to ensure all members of your group are happy with the property in its entirety.
Step 2 - Applying for a property
- Once ALL tenants are happy with 1 property, you should begin your application to secure the property. Please ensure only 1 person from your group applies, as duplicate applications may be voided.
Key information:- Applications can only be made online via the button on our website, NOT over the phone or in our office.
- Properties are secured on a first-come, first-served basis.
- ALL tenants and ALL guarantors must be available to sign the Tenancy Agreement online via email links within a 3-day signing deadline; otherwise, the property will be remarketed or offered to the next applicant. Failure to sign within the deadline may result in the £100 per person holding deposit being retained by the Agent.
For every Tenant you will need to provide the following details to apply:
- TITLE
- FULL NAME- as shown on legal documents
- CONTACT NUMBER
- EMAIL ADDRESS
- GUARANTOR STATUS - Each tenant must provide a UK-based guarantor who is aged 18 or over and in full-time employment, self-employed, or retired and receiving a pension. Guarantors must pass references and meet our affordability criteria, which require them to earn at least 36 times the tenant's monthly rent per year, or have savings of at least 2.5 times the tenant's total annual rent. We need to know if anyone does not have a suitable guarantor BEFORE APPLYING, as we will need to check further details with both the applicant and the landlord of the property.
You will receive an acknowledgement within 1 working day confirming whether your application has been successful. If you have not heard from us within 1 working day, please contact us.
Step 3 - References and Pre-Tenancy Agreement
If your application is successful, you will receive your reference requests via email within 3 working days. From this point, you have 3 days to:
- Sign your pre-tenancy agreement.
- Complete your references.
- Upload your Right to Rent documentation (typically a passport for UK citizens, or your Sharecode for non-UK citizens).
- Send proof of your student status.
- Ensure your guarantor completes their references and signs their guarantor agreement.
Step 4 - Completing Your Tenancy Agreement
Once all references and pre-tenancy agreements are completed, we will send out the link to your tenancy agreement.
You will then have 3 days from when the tenancy agreement is sent out to:
- Sign the tenancy agreement.
- Pay the remainder of your deposit funds.
Important Deadlines:
- ALL tenants and ALL guarantors must sign within the 3-day signing deadline or the property will be remarketed or offered to the next application.
- Failure to sign within the deadline may result in the £100 per person holding deposit being retained by the Agent.
- If you have not received your tenancy agreement within the expected timeframe, please contact our office to follow up.
