When it comes to finding the best student accommodation Preston, then the first port of call should be North West Homes but tips about what to look for when inspecting flats and houses are always to be recommended.
The search for a student property will come after the students have decided who they are going to live with and, for many reasons, this is the most important part of the process.
That’s because the students will be living together for an academic year, or even longer, and they will sign a tenancy agreement which will state that the rent needs to be paid – even should someone move out.
The next most important tip is not to feel rushed and sign-up for the first student house in Preston you come across; around one in every eight student groups will do this.

There’s no rush and there’s always quality accommodation available, even if the group is looking for 6 bedroom student houses in Preston, the friendly team at North West Homes will be able to help.
So, it is essential that the students view several potential homes to get an idea of their wants and whether a property is really worth what the landlord is asking for in rent.
Don’t forget that rent is a big financial commitment and will need to be paid weekly or monthly.
Also, when looking at student houses it is a good idea to take pictures so the students can remember the properties they like and do not like and they should also have some questions to ask the person showing the group around.
Potential issues that students should be looking for in a new property include damp and condensation, pest infestation and security.

Even for smaller student properties, and this may mean students looking for 3 bed student houses Preston, for instance, will need to be aware of its location.

However, some properties will be cheaper because they are located further away and the students will need to catch a bus to attend lectures.

Among the downsides, will be the noise and distraction that having lots of students living nearby will bring.
