Contract checking

So you’ve had all your questions answered at a drop in surgery and found your perfect house and housemates, now it’s really important that you get your contract checked before you go any further.

Manchester Student Homes offer a comprehensive contract checking service you can either book an in-person appointment at the MSH Pod or you can have your contract checked via email at manchesterstudenthomes@manchester.ac.uk.

To help the checking service run as smoothly as possible:

  • Please make sure you have read the contract and have a list of any questions ready.
  • If you are a group, you will need to know whether you are signing one contract between you or a series of individual contracts.
  • If you need a guarantor, please bring or send the form.

And remember…

  • Ideally, everyone in your group should be involved in this process.
  • Rentals are normally quoted as per month (calendar month). This means you use the weekly rent, multiply by 52 and divide by 12 to get the correct amount.
  • Manchester Student Homes is open Monday to Fridays, from 9am until 5pm.

Finally…

If you haven’t started looking for your accommodation, don’t worry there is still plenty of University Approved Accommodation available at www.manchesterstudenthomes.com.
