How it works
Renting with us, start to finish.
Everything your group needs to know, from the first viewing to getting your deposit back.
How it works
From group chat to keys, in three steps.
Step 1: Shortlist your houses
Pick how many of you there are and browse the houses that fit. Call us if you want a hand narrowing it down.
Step 2: We drive you round
Book a viewing and meet us at the office on Ladybarn Lane. We’ll take your group round each house in one of our people carriers.
Step 3: Sign on your phone, move in
Contracts are signed electronically from your phone, tablet or laptop. Then it’s keys, and our maintenance team on hand all year.

“Me and my mates were tenants over 3 different houses in 3 years with HOUSE. For the whole of the time we were looked after by Emma who was absolutely brilliant, she was incredibly friendly, she drove [us] to viewings and helped us out with the issues we had in the houses, which there were a lot of, but Emma’s great service made up for this.”
“... Whether it was fixing the dishwasher, replacing a fridge or boiler. They informed of every process. Someone was always in the office which is local to all the housing to help if needed. Thanks for a good two years!”
Questions students ask
Do we all have to view together?
It helps, but it isn’t essential. Book a slot for whoever can make it and we’ll drive you round. If someone can’t come, ask about photos and video of the house.
What do we need to sign?
Contracts are completed electronically from your phone, tablet or laptop. We’ll explain everything in the contract before anyone signs.
Is there a deposit?
Yes. It’s shown on each listing (£350 or £475 per person on our current houses), and it’s protected in a government-approved scheme (mydeposits or TDS).
Do you charge fees?
No agency fees. Rent and deposit, that’s it.
What happens if something breaks?
Report it to the office on 0161 220 6030 or through the tenants’ page. Our own maintenance team handles repairs, and there’s an out-of-hours number for emergencies.
When do tenancies start?
Most of our houses run from 1 July. Each listing shows its own start date.
