Do you need a guarantor?
Without a UK rental guarantor, most landlords and agents will require you to pay the full year's rent upfront. We have partnered with Housing Hand who can provide you with a certificate of rental guarantee.
* Please note that additional charges apply for this service.
Due to the Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic, we recognise there is a lot of uncertainty for students. At aparto we are committed to being as flexible as possible. If you book your September 2021 accommodation now, we will allow you to cancel your booking before 31st May without penalty.
To confirm your application and booking, you need to read and sign the Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement (the “AST”)
An advanced rent payment of up to one week’s rent is required when booking. When you move in, this money will transfer to your rent account, provided that you have met the terms in the Agreement.
Once you have signed your AST and paid your advanced rent payment online you are agreeing to take up your place within the accommodation and are bound to pay the AST fee in its entirety. Any subsequent request to cancel will require you to find a student to replace you, who is approved by aparto. This carries an administration fee of £100. For guidance on cancelling your booking due to travel and visa restrictions see below.
Online Courses:
If your University decides to complete teaching of your course fully online, the tenancy agreement is still binding, and you are still expected to take up occupancy at the residence. All terms and conditions of the tenancy agreement will still be applicable. We understand that your experience is so important and If your course is moved online aparto will ensure that our experience and events programme will continue where possible in line with government guidance.
Travel
Due to the changing nature of of travel bans and lockdowns, aparto will review these on an individual basis. Travel for education is considered essential; It is the tenant’s responsibility to organise travel and aparto will not be liable for travel disruption.
Visas
If you are denied a visa, please let us know as soon as possible. We can cancel your booking if you have applied for a visa and it has been refused. Please let us know, with evidence within 5 days of your visa being refused.
If you are due to travel and experience issues obtaining a Visa we will try to hold your room for you while your Visa is being processed. Please ensure that you have the correct visa and college/university place before you arrive where necessary. It is the student’s responsibility to maintain Visa status. If your Visa is delayed you may be responsible for the terms and conditions of the tenancy/licence.
The following is applicable to first-year undergraduate and pre sessional post graduate intakes only:
If you are not successful in obtaining your place at your chosen university/college then don’t worry. We will release from your tenancy and refund of any advanced rent payment where you can provide proof that you did not obtain a place at a university/college which is within a reasonable distance from accommodation booked. You will need to submit your request to cancel by email along with proof within five working days of the confirmation that you have received your place.
If you change your mind
After signing your agreement, the terms and conditions of the agreement, including all payments, are legally enforceable against the tenant. Once you have signed the tenancy agreement you must complete the advanced rent payment set forth in the rent schedule of the agreement. From signing the agreement you have 7 days to complete the guarantor information. In the event that the guarantor does not sign the agreement, the agreement will remain enforceable against the tenant.
If you sign your agreement before 31st May 2021, aparto will allow you to cancel your agreement before this date without penalty. If you sign your agreement after 1st June 2021 aparto will allow a period of 48 hours for you to change your mind. You must let us know in writing by email to the residence inbox if you wish to cancel your tenancy in this timeframe.
For any refunds via international bank transfers a fee of £12 will be applied.
Failure to Check In
If you fail to check-in you will remain liable to pay any rent, or other fees associated with the original agreement, and we reserve the right to pursue for any sums outstanding in respect of the same.
Where possible, we may remarket your room. Until a new occupant has taken over the agreement and moved in, the tenant will be liable for the terms and conditions of the agreement.
Once you have moved into the residence, you will only be considered for a tenancy release in exceptional circumstances.
You must have withdrawn from your University or College and provided proof in the form of a withdrawal letter, signed on headed paper from the institution. You must also have a suitable letter from the doctor or medical institution detailing the issue and why it has caused you to University
Tenancy Releases for exceptional circumstances will not be granted where:
Once a tenancy release decision has been made, this decision is final and any appeal of this decision will be undertaken using the framework of the aparto complaints policy.
Tenancy Takeover
You may be able to arrange a release by finding someone else to take over your tenancy. Please get in touch and we will provide details of this process. The new tenant must be a student and aparto must approve the new tenant for the tenancy takeover to be valid.
