House Policies
Cooling Off Period
If you wish to cancel your booking within 14 days of signing your tenancy agreement, you may do so with a full refund, provided you have not yet moved into the property. Cancellations must be submitted in writing to the property team, and you will receive confirmation of your cancellation request. Please note that the holding deposit will be retained by the property.
Replacement Tenant Found
If you wish to cancel your tenancy after the cooling-off period, you may do so by finding a suitable replacement tenant. The new tenant must meet all verification requirements and agree to the terms of the tenancy. The replacement tenant must sign a new tenancy agreement, pay any due sums, and be enrolled in full-time education in the area.
Once the replacement tenant has been verified, signed the agreement, and moved in, your tenancy will be canceled, and any pro-rata rent or security deposit will be refunded, minus a £50 administration fee for the tenancy variation.
If a replacement tenant is not found, you and your guarantor will remain liable for the full terms of the contract.
No Visa, No Pay
If your visa application to study in the UK is rejected, you can cancel your booking and receive a full refund of any rent paid and your damage deposit. You will need to submit proof of the visa rejection within 7 days of receiving the decision. This policy is only applicable for students who require a visa to study in the UK.
No Place, No Pay
If you do not receive an offer to study at your chosen university or higher education institution, you may cancel your booking and receive a full refund.

Cancellations Post Move-In: If you wish to leave the property after moving in, you must first obtain permission from the landlord. This will typically be allowed if you find a replacement tenant who meets all the necessary criteria. Any refunds will only be processed once the new tenant has signed the agreement and paid all due amounts.
Failure to Check-In: If you fail to occupy the room on the tenancy start date without prior notice, the property reserves the right to re-market the room. You will remain liable for the rent and associated costs until a new tenant is found.
