SAS also operates a Tenant Find Service. With this service, we pre-visit the properties to ensure they meet a minimum standard. We then advertise the properties on behalf of the landlord, undertake the property viewings, set up the contracts and take the initial rent payment which is usually the summer retainer. Students will either be expected to sign one joint contract or individual contracts with someone acting as a guarantor - the choice of contract is down to the landlord(s).

What happens next?
Once you've signed your contracts and made initial payment to SAS, we'll hand everything over to the landlord.
From that point onwards you deal directly with your landlord for payment of deposit (usually 1 months rent), all future rent payments and maintenance and repair issues.
