Choosing locations for student homes

Picking the right location for your rented student property will save you time, money, and future problems. At Househustler, we suggest you consider:

• Distance and travelling: Do you own a car or bicycle, or rely on public transport ? Remember you will need to travel to and form shops, amenities and lectures. There will be trips home, and possibly journeys to part-time workplaces. Do you need nearby bus or rail terminals? What of Sunday and late-night transport services? Distances may be walkable, but are they safe at night?

• Student areas: Student neighbourhoods have pros and cons. They will be convenient for getting to lectures. There will be student companionship and mutual support, and probably great social life. Student areas have thriving student pubs, plenty of fast-food outlets, and other agreeable shops. Student areas are not always 'respectable', which some students relish. Student neighbourhoods are often high crime areas, attracting burglars. Poor maintenance and housekeeping can cause dilapidated, unhygienic environments. Haphazard community involvement produces lower standard public works and services

• Non-student areas: Rents may be cheaper here, and landlords more amenable with tenancy agreements. The safety factor, maintenance standards and general presentation should all be better. On the downside, your 'respectable' neighbours may not tolerate much noise and late partying. And you may be annoyed by suburban noises from schools or barking dogs. There will be fewer nearby food shops and pubs

• Locality research: Ask other students, college staff, local police and community wardens, local media and taxi drivers about the area. There may be one dodgy street in an otherwise safe neighbourhood. Be alert for litter, fly-tipping, safety grills on doors and windows, boarded-up houses, and abandoned cars - warning signs of high crime levels. Is there a motorway, railway line or football ground nearby? If so, could you accept the noise and disruption, especially during exams?

These considerations will help you choose student accommodation in the ideal locality.

setting up gas and electricity in student home in Bradford?

I'm soon to move in to my student home and am wondering what to do about setting up gas/electricity. Once I move in and take notes of the meter readings can setting up the account wait a few days?

put you details into one of the many comparison sites (- check moneysavingexpert.com) to find your cheapest supplier. Once done setting up via the internet or phone makes not much difference unless you're offered an online discount. #
PS If your sharing with someone else try getting the bills in both names to safegaurd yourself in case they run off without paying their share of the bill - it happens.
