Leeds student accommodation

A bit about HOP

We’re old hands when it comes to matching students to their ultimate accommodation. First as Let Leeds and now as HOP, we have been leading the way in lettings since 2009. Nothing gives us more of a fuzzy feeling inside than helping students find their perfect match.

From the get-go, we have been determined to provide an innovative service for young people who are searching for student accommodation in Leeds. Our motto is ‘Every Move Matters’ and it’s an ethos that captures how we feel about everything we do here at HOP.  From start to finish, we aim to offer every student a truly top notch and personal experience.

We’ve even won a number of awards for our customer service and have received heaps of positive reviews on Feefo and Google from happy landlords and tenants. We could let that kind of thing go to our collective heads, but that’s not the way we operate at HOP. In our minds, if customers are happier with us than they have been with any other agency, that just means we’re doing our job.

Our friendly team – many of whom were once students themselves – are here to help you find the home that is right for you. Rest assured that we will go the extra mile to find, not just any available rental, but the perfect location that matches your budget, academic needs and safety considerations.

Our Process: 9 steps to your perfect student home

Step 1: Start the search

Search our available student accommodation.

Whether you’d prefer to browse our website, check out Rightmove or scroll through our social channels, the first step in finding your perfect student home is to take a look at our properties and see what takes your fancy.

Step 4: Reserve the property

Reserve the property

Fallen in love with your dream student home?

We’ll fill out a Pre-Tenancy Agreement with you, which details key information regarding the Tenancy.  In addition, we’ll take a Holding Deposit to take it off the market, this is usually one week’s rent.

You will then have 15 days to complete your application or it goes back on the market!

Your Holding Deposit will go towards your Deposit and transferred to a deposit account upon signing the Tenancy Agreement.

Leeds Student Housing

Step 5: Complete your application

Complete your application

Completing your application is easy using the HOP Online Application.

Fill in the details and submit the required documents – all electronically! You can even do it from your phone.

These details will form part of the final Tenancy Agreement that you and your housemates will need to sign at the end of the process.

student-flats-in-leeds

Step 6: Guarantor paperwork

Guarantor paperwork

As a Student you will require a Guarantor who will guarantee that you will pay your rent for the duration of the Tenancy. If for some reason, you don’t pay your rent, then the Guarantor will be liable for it. A Guarantor is usually a parent or guardian earning over £25,000 p/a.

As you complete your HOP Online Application with their details, the Guarantor will be emailed a link to fill in their information too and upload the relevant documents online. The Guarantor will then be referenced and credit checked as part of the application process.

Leeds student houses

Step 7: The property is yours!

The property is yours!

Once the application, paperwork and referencing is complete, the final Tenancy Agreement will be sent electronically to all parties to sign. Once signed, we’ll check everything is as it should be, countersign it, and the balance of the Deposit becomes due. The final, signed Tenancy Agreement will be issued with prescribed information automatically, once completed.

You’ll then need to pay the remainder of your Deposit. The Holding Deposit carries forward to become part of your deposit, and the whole thing is held by the TDS (Tenancy Deposit Scheme), which holds it securely throughout your Tenancy.

Leeds student lets

Step 8: Pay first month's rent

Pay first month’s rent

As it will state in your Tenancy Agreement, 14 days before your Tenancy start date, you’ll need to pay your first rent instalment and arrange key collection dates with the HOP team.

It’s important you set up a standing order to pay the initial rent payment by this deadline, as we can’t release keys until these funds are cleared.

On a joint tenancy, where you are sharing with housemates, all parties will need to have paid their first rent instalment in full before the keys can be released to anyone in the group.

student house Leeds

Step 9: Move-in day!

Move in day!

Book an appointment with the team to collect your keys and Tenancy Pack either on, or a few days after, your Tenancy start date (usually around the 1st July for students).

Don’t forget that you will need to bring your passport/ID with you so we can release the keys.

Then you can move in to your perfect pad and set about making it your new home!

Things to Remember on Move-In Day

Things to Remember on Move-In Day

When it’s time to move into your student accommodation in Leeds, of course you’ll be keen to start experiencing student life in Leeds and really see what the city has to offer. However, there are a few things you have to consider on move-in day.

  1. Firstly, you’ll need to collect your keys from the HOP office. Remember to bring your ID with you as we’ll be giving all sets of keys to the nominated tenant that comes into the office. Each tenant should have their own set, and we recommend testing each of these
  2. You’ll then be given a photographic inventory – listing everything in the property and showing the condition it’s in. Please take this seriously. You have the option to respond if anything in the inventory isn’t accurate
  3. Our last tip is to test your appliances. You should ensure this is done as soon as possible as, after 14 days, you will be liable for anything that is faulty
Remembering Your Student Responsibilities

Remembering Your Responsibilities

We know it’s an exciting time to move out of student halls, but as one of the prime Leeds student letting agents, we feel we should remind you that you do have some responsibilities when it comes to looking after your rental property during your time at university.

Here are a few things we advise you to keep on top of:

  • Bleeding radiators to ensure they are clear of air and will actually heat your home
  • Keeping sinks clear of silt, hair and anything else that may cause a blockage
  • Replacing light bulbs
  • Regularly testing smoke alarms and replacing batteries as needed
  • Keeping external drains free of debris – so surface water can flow
  • Keeping rooms well ventilated (windows open) – especially bathrooms
Keeping Your Student Property Clean

Keeping Your Property Clean

What you do in your own time is up to you, but it’s vital that you keep your student let clean!

Here are a few things we suggest you do to keep it in good condition, and ensure you get your full deposit back:

  • Hoover up on a regular basis and wipe down skirting boards – they get dusty!
  • Clean the cooker after use
  • Don’t leave out-of-date food to rot in your fridge
  • Keep bathrooms clean to prevent mould
  • Act quickly if you spill anything on carpets or upholstery

To Parents

Our experience is that first or second-year university students at Leeds Trinity or the University of Leeds are not always the ones that contact us about student housing. Their parents do. So if you have a son or daughter about to go away to university for the first time and you are losing sleep over the prospect, get in touch with HOP. We completely understand and sympathise with your concerns – and we are ready to work with you from day 1 to ensure your loved one gets the best, most convenient, and safest student accommodation the city has to offer.

A Letting Agent That Genuinely Enjoys Finding Student Accommodation in Leeds for You

If you’ve tried other letting agents in the city, you may have found that some are less than enthusiastic when it comes to helping students find somewhere nice to live in Leeds. If this has been the case, you are in for a pleasant surprise when you deal with us. We genuinely look forward to helping students find somewhere great to stay when they come to Leeds and we will go out of our way to make sure that the accommodation we find you has everything you could possibly need. At HOP, we won’t treat you like a nuisance because we genuinely value your business and we have a team that specialises in accommodation for university and college students in the city.

Whatever type of neighbourhood you think you’ll be happiest in and whatever size budget you have to work with, you can trust HOP to find a place that you’ll feel at home in during your time in Leeds.

The point is, there’s a lot at stake when it comes to where you live. So much so, that it doesn’t make sense to use a new or inexperienced letting agent or agency. Stick with the pros here at HOP. We’ll set you up with student accommodation in Leeds that you’ll look back on fondly years from now.
