The Rent

How much rent do we charge for our rooms?

Single rooms range from £85 to £100 per week depending on the size and location.
Double rooms range from £105 to £110 per week for single occupancy to £140 to £150 per week for couples.
Bedrooms with private en-suite shower rooms or bathroom range from £130 to £150 per week.

These prices include all items listed below.

How is the rent calculated?

The rent is a weekly rent. If you need to know the exact amount your rent will be on a monthly basis, you need to multiply it by 52 (weeks of the year), then divide it by 12 (months).

ie. £100 x 52 = £5200 / 12 = £433 (per month)

Do we charge a Deposit?

Yes. Deposits required are usually the equivalent to "2" weeks' rent. So, for example, if the rent is £100/week, the deposit will normally be £200. Deposits are lodged with and protected by the government Deposit Protection Scheme (DPS) and are therefore no longer kept by the landlord. For this reason, deposits cannot be used to pay the last 2 weeks' rent of a tenancy. For very short stays (less than 3 months), Rent in Advance may be required instead of a deposit.

How much do I need to move in?

If you can supply all the required documents and these are satisfactory, you will need the equivalent of 2 weeks' rent for the deposit plus the first week's rent minimum to move in.

For example, if the rent is £100 per week, you will need to pay £200 for the deposit and £100 rent for your first week to move in. In other words, you will need £300 to move in.
Thereafter, you will just pay your weekly rent or £100 per week.

Other conditions may apply in special cases.

How is the Rent collected?

By Standing Order set up with your bank. It is due each week on the weekday of the start of your tenancy. For example, if your tenancy started on a Friday, the rent is due every Friday, if it started on a Tuesday, then it is due every Tuesday.

Un-authorised late rent payment will attract a charge of £5/day until the outstanding rent is paid in full.
