No, subletting your room is strictly forbidden. If you do wish to leave your contract early you will need to find a replacement tenant and provide their details to the support team so they can release you from your contract and create a new tenancy agreement for the new tenant.
Do you accept replacement tenants?
Provided the 7 Day Cooling-Off-Period has expired, you will have to pay all amounts due under your Tenancy Agreement unless a replacement tenant is found for your Room or you enter into a new Tenancy. If a replacement Tenant is found for your Room before your start date, the property will release you from your Tenancy Agreement on the date seven days after the new Tenants Tenancy Agreement is signed. If a replacement Tenant is found for your Room after your start date, they will release you from your Tenancy Agreement from the start date of the replacement Tenant’s new Tenancy Agreement. If you have occupied the Room prior to this, you will be charged GBP 50 to cover their costs of preparing the Room for the replacement Tenant.
Do I need to read the tenancy document?
Yes, it’s really important you understand what you’re agreeing to. If there’s any terms or conditions which are unclear, or if you’re still unsure, we recommend you get in touch. Once you’ve accepted your tenancy agreement, you have entered into a contract. If you want to change or cancel your tenancy at a later date, you’ll need to check the cancellation policy.
How to pay
We believe in being flexible. That means you get the choice on how you pay your rent. You can choose from annual, semi-annual and monthly* instalments across the year and pay online. We do not accept cash.
*If you pay semi-annual, your total amount will be 5% more expensive and if you pay monthly, it will be 10% more expensive than if you pay annual.
Do I have to pay a deposit?
Yes, a deposit of one month’s rent will need to be paid by the time you check in. It is held in a Government approved Deposit Protection Scheme (DPS) for the duration of the Licence. You will receive an email confirmation from DPS when the deposit is registered.
In addition to the above a key deposit of £50 will be held against the key security which will be refunded on return of the key at the end of the term.
What does the deposit cover and when will I get it back?
The deposit is registered with the DPS and covers any damage you may cause to your room; this excludes normal wear and tear. It is refundable at the end of your tenancy end date based on a a successful check-out inspection (i.e. no damage, cleanliness related issues or outstanding rent). The deposit is usually received within 28 working days. You will receive an email from DPS confirming when your deposit is ready to be returned.
What happens if I can’t make a payment?
Your rental instalment due dates are outlined in your tenancy agreement and by accepting the terms and conditions of your contract, both customer and guarantor are accepting responsibility for payment on the dates provided. If you are unable to make payment for your rent, please speak to the support team. They will be able to discuss with you your payment options and advise you of any future implications depending on how late the payment will be.
What is a guarantor and why do I need to provide one?
Your guarantor is a person who agrees to pay your rent or make other payments due under your tenancy agreement if you are unable to. They’re standard practice for rental housing, particularly for students. We will only contact your guarantor if there is a delay in payment or we are concerned that the terms of your tenancy are not being complied with. Your guarantor should be over 18 years of age. They should be in full time employment and a homeowner and/or renting housing. We welcome international guarantors.
What does my guarantor need to do when I book?
We’ll send your guarantor a separate form to fill in once you’ve made your booking and provided their details. They’ll need to complete this form to prove they are eligible. If your guarantor needs to see a copy of this form before you book, then they can ask our support team, who’ll be happy to provide a copy to read in advance. They’ll also be able to answer any questions that you or they have about this document.
What happens if they don’t or can’t sign the form?
If the person named as a guarantor would prefer not to sign the agreement or isn’t eligible to act as a guarantor, we ask the student to nominate someone else. If the student is not able to find a guarantor, we’ll then discuss this with the student – we may need to cancel the booking, or we may be able to agree with the resident that because of their individual circumstances the tenancy agreement can proceed without a guarantor.
When might you contact my guarantor?
Unless you’ve asked us to notify them of other issues, we’ll only contact your guarantor if there’s a delay in payment or we are concerned that the terms of your tenancy are not being complied with. Typically delays in payment will relate to rent, but it would also cover issues like any damages to your room that haven’t been paid for. More information is explained in the agreement we’ll send to your guarantor.
Can my parent/guarantor ask questions about my tenancy on my behalf?
If you’ve signed a tenancy agreement with us, we will communicate with you directly. We’ll only contact your guarantor if there’s a delay in payment, if we’re concerned that the terms of your tenancy are not being complied with, or if you’ve specifically given your consent for us to discuss your tenancy with a named third party. However, we can provide general information about our tenancies and processes.
