House Policies

Cancellation Policy

When you sign a Unipol Tenancy you are contractually obliged to pay the rent in full for the contracted period. As a not for profit provider we try and maximise our occupancy to keep rents lower.

Never simply leave your room and hope that the issue of paying rent will go away: it won’t. Simply leaving your room means that Unipol cannot even try to let it, because it is still legally occupied by you and Unipol will always seek to recover monies owed in these circumstances.

If you want, or feel, you have to leave your accommodation there are some options open to you so you do not have to continue paying rent: 

Under normal circumstances you will not be released from your contract even if you have given up your course and are leaving the City, so visit the information on 'Finding a replacement'.

It is never possible to release you from your contractual obligations in the final three months of your tenancy.

Other Special Cases

If you think you must leave your tenancy because you have been severely affected by a life event or a similar exceptional circumstance then you can make out your case to be released from your tenancy to the Unipol Director of Finance who will consider cases against the criteria detailed below, receiving advice from the Tenancy Support and Wellbeing Coordinators and external bodies as appropriate.

Remember that Unipol is not obliged to release you from your tenancy and that the decision of the Director of Finance, when made, is final.

It is recommended that you also follow the route of 'Finding a replacement', even if you intend to or do apply to for release - as you may find this option allows you to be released quicker that way.

The Director of Finance has a set of criteria for considering cases:

  • Death of a tenant. The tenancy would cease on the date of death. A death certificate would be needed to grant the deed of release. Next of Kin are able to sign relevant paperwork
  • Tenant involved in a serious incident which results in the tenant being seriously ill or in a coma. Proof would be provided normally in the form of a doctor’s letter or accredited medical practitioner. Next of Kin would be allowed to sign the relevant paperwork.
  • Illness of a tenant, or those presenting with a disability which necessitates the tenant leaving their University course and leaving Leeds/Nottingham/Bradford to undergo a course of treatment, and pregnancy of a tenant where there is no other appropriate accommodation available from Unipol.

Proof needs to be provided by a doctor or midwife letter which needs to give details of illness, disability or condition. Confirmation from the institution regarding the tenant leaving their course is also needed.

  • Illness of a close family member where there is no-one else in the family able to look after that family member or other dependants (with siblings needing to be under 18 years of age) and which results in the tenant having to leave their course. Proof would be provided by a doctor’s letter which needs to give details of illness. Confirmation from the institution regarding the tenant leaving their course is also needed
  • A genuinely exceptional circumstance has occurred.

If you have signed a Joint Tenancy it is more difficult to release you from your contract because it affects other people. Be aware that if Unipol agree to release you this will depend on the consent of your co-tenants who must complete new tenancy agreements within a fixed period of time to allow you to be released. If they fail to do this then Unipol cannot release you.
