    IMPORTANT: Homes for Students is under no obligation to enter into a Tenancy Agreement with any replacement tenant that is suggested by any existing tenant, or its representative or agent under this provision.
    Rooms that are re-let to a new tenant will be at the current market rate, and not necessarily at the rate the room was previously sold at.
    While we will always do what we can to assist, it is not the obligation of Homes for Students or the landlord to find a replacement tenant to take over the tenancy. The tenant is responsible for ensuring the room is suitable to be re-let, and it must be in the same clean and lettable condition as it was when the tenant took occupation and that it is available for viewings to allow it to be re-let.
    If a suitable tenant is found and the room is re-let, we will refund the security deposit, less any appropriate charges, as well as a deduction of £50 for the variation of the contract. No £50 charge will be made for tenancies coming to an end after any applicable legal notice period that applies under current legislation and the deposit will be refunded. Please note, £20 will be deducted from the refunded amount to cover international bank charges for deposit refunds made to non-UK banks.
    The deposit paid is non-transferable and cannot be moved to another tenant, or to another year.
    The ‘Cooling Off Period’ must have passed, or the new tenant have paid their rent and moved into the accommodation before the original tenant is released from their contractual obligations under the tenancy agreement. If the new booking is cancelled by the replacement tenant during their 7 day Initial Cancellation Period, you remain liable for the rent until another replacement tenant is found.
    Please note, if the tenant moves out early, before the tenancy has ended, they will not be able to claim back the deposit until the tenancy end date.
    Once we have accepted the replacement tenant, or the end of any legal notice period that applies under current legislation has passed, you must return the room key to the property office within 5 working days.
    You will need to confirm your contact details to the property team before moving out to ensure you can be notified.

  • Special Conditions

    Medical:
    You can request to terminate your tenancy agreement if you have an existing medical condition that renders you medically unable to continue at university and this medical condition is recorded on your application prior to a room offer being made.
    You (or a legal guardian, or representative) must:
    send an email to: salesenquiries@wearehomesforstudents.com or to your property email address if already in residence confirming that you wish to cancel the tenancy agreement on medical grounds, stating your full name, details of the property booked;
    send medical proof (e.g. letter from doctor) with your request;
    send proof of withdrawal or deferral from the University.
    You will be liable for a minimum of 4 weeks’ rent or to the end of the current rent period, whichever is the longer. For the avoidance of doubt, a rent period is the full contract value up to the fixed end date divided into 3 equal instalments, regardless of the instalment option that was chosen by you at the outset.
    If you have a medical condition that is not recorded on your application, you will remain liable for the rent until the end of the fixed tenancy end date, or until a suitable replacement tenant is found and the room is re-let.

    Sensitive or Exceptional Special Conditions:
    You can submit a request in writing, or by email to salesenquiries@wearehomesforstudents.com or your property email address with supporting evidence (including medical information or supporting information from your place of study as appropriate), to the Special Conditions Panel for your case to be reviewed.
    The Panel will review your request and make consideration of your circumstances. Once the Panel has reached its decision, both you and your guarantor will be notified in writing. The Panel aims to confirm a decision within 10 working days* and is final.
    *This can sometimes take longer due to additional Landlord approval requirements.

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.

    I’ve had a fantastic experience living here and have already rebooked for next year. One of the standout features is definitely the size of the rooms and kitchens, there is so much more space than your typical student accommodation. What’s been particularly impressive is how well-maintained the building is. I’ve had no issues whatsoever where maintenance was required, unlike prior student accommodations. A huge shoutout to Joanna and Demi in the office as well. They were incredibly helpful in helping me find the right room for next year. They made the whole rebooking process easy and ensured I got exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend this place if you want plenty of space and a team that cares!

    Staying at Limelight has been a really wonderful experience and the best accommodation I had throughout three years in university. The place is clean, secure, and has everything you need and despite what has been promoted on their website of property amenities, but I would love to add, that this place also plan such an amazing events, it goes from a winter ball, running club to more social events. This place not only have such amazing facility, events and spirit but it comes with super amazing staff and I would love to give a special shoutout to all staff they have from- Joanna, Emily, Liam, Linda, Erin and all the others—who are super helpful, kind, supportive and easy to talk to. I Really and most definitely recommend Limelight to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

    Kitchen and bedroom have so much space. Have great events and met great people in this accommodation. One of the best in Liverpool if I’m being honest. Bathroom is so clean and nice and you can tell the building is new

    Stayed here during my first year of uni. Rooms are really nice and modern, no complaints there. Great location — close to LJMU, Lime Street, and most of the city. Communal bins were often overflowing and messy, though. The washing machines were a hassle, mostly because people constantly left their laundry sitting inside. Staff were generally friendly but seemed more focused on running social events than supporting tenants — I was once told to wait an hour for my parcel because they were having a water fight outside. Also, I often wasn’t notified of deliveries through the KLIQ app, so I’d have to ask at reception just in case. Overall, decent place to live but definitely some things they could improve.
