Leeds’ letting season gets underway
Nov 08, 2023 03:22 pmStudents of Leeds, prepare to sort your accommodation for the coming year. Why? Because January 24th officially marks the beginning of student letting season and if you’ve not already started your search then get moving before it’s too late! The largest choice of properties are still available, meaning that now is the most productive time to begin your house hunt.
Why the 24th?
The 24th is the day that Unipol’s “student letting season” kicks off. It’s based on the theory that you’ll know who you want to live with by now, and can be certain in the knowledge that you’ll get on well with your housemates. More importantly, it’s the time when the more organised students embark on their property search, so now is the time to start thinking about who you want to live with, and where you want to live.
Reducing stress
If you’re looking for a year of minimal stress, you might want to consider all-inclusive living to make life easier for you. Rentinc’s all-inclusive package means you’re covered when it comes to broadband, electricity, gas, water rates, and contents insurance, with one simply monthly fee. That means you can focus your efforts on the rigours of your university course, along with enjoying your student lifestyle – not on splitting bills each month!
Give yourself plenty of choice
Whether you’re looking for a property in the city or the surrounding suburbs of Headingley and Hyde Park, there are plenty of options available to you. While it’s important to move quickly, don’t feel that you need to rush in and take the first property you see. Organise plenty of viewings and make sure that you attend them all. Even if you find a property you like the look of, the chances are that you’ll still have time to complete all your viewings. Make sure everyone is in attendance at showings and be certain that before you give the green light on the property, all of your fellow housemates are happy with the decision.
