Student Lettings Services

Student lettings require a specialist approach. With high turnover, strict timeframes, and increasing regulatory requirements, choosing the right agent can make a significant difference to both rental performance and peace of mind.

At Northeast Property, we provide a dedicated student lettings service designed to secure reliable tenants, maximise occupancy, and protect your property. We treat every student property as if it were our own, combining careful tenant selection with hands-on management and clear communication.

Our Student Lettings Approach

We understand the student rental markets across the North East, including key locations near universities and colleges in Newcastle, Durham, and Sunderland. From popular student streets to purpose-adapted shared homes, we know how to position your property to attract the right tenants at the right time.

Our approach focuses on early marketing, compliance, and clear expectations — reducing voids and minimising issues during the tenancy.

What’s Included in Our Student Lettings Service

• Accurate rental valuations based on current student demand

• Advice on optimal marketing times and academic cycles

• Targeted marketing of student properties and individual rooms

• Handling of all enquiries and accompanied viewings

• Thorough tenant referencing, affordability checks, and Right to Rent compliance

• Preparation of compliant student tenancy agreements

• Collection of rent and deposits

• Deposit registration with a government-approved scheme

• Clear communication with landlords throughout the letting process

Compliance & Student Rentals

Student properties are subject to the same legal responsibilities as all rental homes — and in many cases, additional HMO requirements. We help landlords stay compliant with:

• HMO licensing where applicable

• Safety regulations and minimum standards

• Occupancy limits and local authority requirements

• Ongoing legislative changes affecting student landlords

Our local knowledge ensures your property meets both legal requirements and university-area expectations.

Why Tenant Selection Matters

While students are often reliable renters, the right selection process is essential. We carefully assess suitability for shared living and ensure clear communication around responsibilities, helping to create well-managed households and protect your property.

This approach reduces disputes, minimises damage, and supports smoother tenancies.

Who Our Student Lettings Service Is For

• Landlords with single student properties

• HMO student landlords

• First-time student landlords

• Investors targeting high-demand university areas

Whether you let to undergraduates, postgraduates, or mixed student groups, our service is designed to deliver consistent demand, compliance, and peace of mind.
