Do You Need a Guarantor?
Most landlords and letting agents require a UK-based guarantor. Without one, you may be asked to pay your full year's rent upfront. To help students navigate this, we've partnered with Housing Hand, which can provide a recognised certificate of rental guarantee, giving both you and your landlord peace of mind.
It's worth knowing that several of our student halls don't require a UK-based guarantor at all, allowing students to pay rent in convenient instalments instead. To find out which properties qualify and how to get started, reach out to our team. We're happy to guide you through the booking process from start to finish.

Had the pleasure of staying here for two years during my time at UoL. Wonderful accomodation with great facilities. Staff were always accomodating, and went above and beyond to ensure students have what they need. Highly recommend this to any student coming into Leicester for their studies. Convenient location too!

Stayed here for my 3rd year at uni, it was the best experience, service and best accommodation ever! The atmosphere was amazing, I have no complaints whatsoever! It was always maintained with cleaners about and just an overall well run and secure student accommodation! I really recommend this xx
