Get Everything In Writing 

 
When it comes to arranging the agreements and contracts for your accommodation, get everything in writing. The landlord or letting agent might have said he’ll paint the living room wall a more neutral colour but get it in the contract. Otherwise, they’re under no obligation to do so. If you’re in all inclusive accommodation, ensure this is all in the contract too. With rentinc all bills including gas, water, electricity, wifi, gardening and insurance are all included in your student accommodation. Just check the contract to make sure you’re aware!
