Once you have viewed a house and decided that you definitely want to live in it, you will need to let us know by completing an application form. For a group of six, we will need to receive six individual applications from each tenant.
We will then review all applications and if successful, you will be invited by UWE Houses to secure your application by paying a £100 holding deposit per person. Payment details will be given to you and you should only pay this once you’ve been invited by UWE Houses.
Once your application and the £100 holding deposit has been received, the room will be reserved for you and we will take it off the market and no further viewings will take place.
Refund Policy
The holding deposit of £100 is refundable upon completion of all paperwork within our specified time frame.
If tenants decide they no longer want the property, the holding deposit is returned to the landlord.
Placing a holding deposit is meant to show that a tenant is serious about renting the property in question, so tenants must make sure only to place one if they definitely want to rent the property!
If they pull out after placing it, or if an unreasonable amount of time has passed with no tenant contact, the money will go to the landlord to cover the costs they face by taking their property off the market in order to pursue the application.
