General Information on Renting Student Accommodation


Students should try to get accommodation sorted out as early as possible before the new term commences.

The good properties can go very quickly and some landlords may be inclined to put prices up rather than down as term draws near, especially if there a large number of as yet un-housed students.

Here is some advice if you are thinking of renting a furnished property:

• The standard of furnishing will vary across the properties that you view. Student houses will generally be kitted out with well worn furniture and items that can't even remember when they last saw better days, it was so long ago. Then again, many rental properties are finished to such a high standard, you resent having people round for fear of disturbing the immaculate pristine new ambience.

• Find out what's included. A furnished property may be completely decked out with TV, video, hi-fi, beds, bedding, curtains, carpets, wardrobes, washing machine and every other conceivable home comfort. Then again, since the industry is unregulated you will always get the odd landlord who attempts to take the Mickey and provide a furnished flat that comes with little more than a bathtub, a carpet and a bed. Be warned.

• If there are certain things provided that you do not need as you already have your own ones, such as a bed, make sure that you get your landlord or agent to agree in writing to remove the unwanted item.

• Check if the furnishings are fire regulated. They should be, and any lettings agent is required by law to make sure they are checked, but they can sometimes be lax over this issue.

• Bear in mind that appliances will not be tested for you. It may look like you have a microwave, but if you move in only to find that it doesn't work, then you only have yourself to blame for not checking it when you viewed the property.

• Finally, if you are a student and get carried away in a drunken fit of wildness, leading to you breaking up some furniture and burning it in the garden (as someone we know once did a few years ago), expect to lose your deposit
