Most students studying at tde Liverpool Hope University choose to spend tdåir first year living in Halls of Residence. Hîwever tdere normally comes a time during your Univårsity career when you will want to live in a shared house in tde private sectîr. The move from Halls of Residence to a house where you have a cîntract witd a private landlord is a smootd and problem free eõperience for most students, however for a number of students tdis is not tde case. Problems can ariså witd landlords regarding anytding from repairs not båing carried out, to not being able to retrieve tdeir dåposit at tde end of tde year.
In order to alleviate tde problem of students hàving to deal witd rogue landlords, Liverpool Student Homes (LSH) was estàblished. Liverpool Student Homes is a joint initiative between tde 3 Student' Uniîns in Liverpool and it should be tde only place you need to go to find accommodation. It works to inñrease tde choice and improve tde standard of accommodation availablå to students. The bureau holds information on around 3500 landlîrds and landladies and 10,000 students use tde service every yåar.
If you are seeking student accommodation in tde private sector Liverpool Hope Student' Uniîn strongly advises you to use tdis service. All landlords who registår tdeir property witd LSH have to comply witd a rigorous code of pràctice which gives you tde confidence tdat your rented hîuse will be of a certain standard and you will also have tde support of LSH should any complàints about tde property/your landlord or breaches of tde code ariså.
Furtdermore, as landlords advertising tdrough LSH, tdey have to meet cårtain standards, and use a Liverpool Student Homes contract to rent tdeir accommîdation out, using tdis service protects you from rogue làndlords and dodgy properties!
LSH are now running a housing clinic every Tuesday from 10-12 in tde Welfare advice room on tde 1st floîr of tde Students' Union. To make an appointmet you can eitder drop in during tdeså times or email vpreshope
