Council Tax
Full-time students are exempt from paying council tax under the Local Government Finance Act 1992. To maintain this exemption, you must provide a valid Student Certificate issued by your university, which we will share with the local council where required. If at any time you cease to be a full-time student during your tenancy, you must notify us immediately, as the council tax liability will transfer to you.
Right to Rent
In accordance with the Immigration Act 2014, we are required by law to verify that all occupants have the right to live in the UK before the tenancy commences. You will be asked to provide original identification documents (e.g. passport, BRP or other approved ID) so we can complete this check in person. Copies of these documents are retained for the duration of your tenancy in compliance with Home Office requirements.

Updated for the Renters' Rights Act 2025. These terms reflect the new private rented sector regime that came into force on 1 May 2026, including the abolition of Assured Shorthold Tenancies and the move to Assured Periodic Tenancies.
Tenancy Type
The tenancy granted is an Assured Periodic Tenancy under the Housing Act 1988, as amended by the Renters' Rights Act 2025. The tenancy runs on a rolling monthly basis with no fixed end date. Existing Assured Shorthold Tenancies granted before 1 May 2026 were automatically converted to Assured Periodic Tenancies on that date.
Occupancy & Subletting
Only persons named on the tenancy agreement may occupy the property as their primary residence. Any change in occupancy must be agreed by the landlord in writing in advance. Subletting and lodging are not permitted under any circumstances.
Reservation (No Holding Deposit)
We do not require any holding deposit, application fee or reservation fee to apply for one of our properties. Reservation is confirmed in writing once your application has been received, referencing checks have been satisfactorily completed, and a mutually agreed move-in date has been set. The only monies payable at the start of your tenancy are your first month's rent and one further month's rent paid in advance, in accordance with section 4B of the Housing Act 1988 (as inserted by the Renters' Rights Act 2025).
No Deposit Tenancy
Our private rentals are offered on a no-deposit basis. No tenancy deposit is taken, requested or held under the tenancy agreement. This represents a significant cost saving for our tenants — typically £1,000+ that would otherwise be tied up for the duration of the tenancy.
In place of a deposit, our security rests on the following protections, which form part of the tenancy agreement:
- Thorough pre-tenancy referencing, including identity, employment, income and credit checks
- The tenant's date of birth and National Insurance number, held on file for tracing and civil debt enforcement purposes
- The tenant's written consent to credit reference and tracing searches (see Schedule C of the tenancy agreement)
- A documented arrears escalation protocol activating well before any statutory threshold
- The landlord's reserved right to pursue civil money claims in the County Court for any unpaid rent or damages, independently of and in addition to any possession proceedings
End-of-tenancy financial claims (e.g. for damage beyond fair wear and tear or unpaid rent) will be pursued as civil money claims in the County Court rather than deducted from any deposit. Any County Court Judgment (CCJ) registered against a tenant remains on their credit record for six years.
Rent & Advance Payments
Rent is payable monthly in advance by standing order to the landlord's nominated account. In compliance with the Renters' Rights Act 2025, no rent may be demanded or accepted before the tenancy agreement is signed, and the maximum amount payable in advance during the tenancy is one month's rent (or 28 days' rent where the rental period is shorter).
Rent Increases
Rent may only be increased once in any 12-month period. The landlord must serve a Section 13 notice in the prescribed form, giving at least 2 months' notice of the proposed increase. The new rent must reflect market rent. The tenant has the right to challenge the increase by applying to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) before the date the increase is due to take effect.
Late Payment Charge
In the event that rent remains unpaid for a period of more than 14 days from the date on which the same is due, interest will be charged at a rate equal to 3% above the Bank of England's base rate, calculated daily on the overdue amount until payment is received in full. This complies with Schedule 1, Section 4 of the Tenant Fees Act 2019.
Permitted Charges
All charges set out below comply with Schedule 1 of the Tenant Fees Act 2019.
| Charge |

| Lost / Replacement Key |

| Early Surrender (tenant request) |

We do not charge any administration, referencing, renewal, check-in, check-out, inventory or other fees prohibited under the Tenant Fees Act 2019.
Tenant Notice to End Tenancy
The tenant may end the tenancy at any time by giving the landlord at least 2 months' written notice, in accordance with section 8(1) of the Renters' Rights Act 2025. The notice must be in writing and must expire at the end of a rental period.
Landlord Possession
The landlord may only seek possession of the property by serving a notice under Section 8 of the Housing Act 1988 (as amended), relying on one or more of the statutory grounds set out in Schedule 2. Notice periods vary by ground (typically 4 months for mandatory grounds such as Ground 1A — landlord selling the property — which cannot be used in the first 12 months of a tenancy). Section 21 "no-fault" evictions were abolished by the Renters' Rights Act 2025 on 1 May 2026.
Pet Requests
Under the Renters' Rights Act 2025, you have the right to request to keep a pet at the property. We will consider any pet request reasonably and respond in writing within a reasonable period. Consent may be made conditional (for example, on you taking out pet insurance or paying a reasonable additional security deposit where permitted by law). Consent must not be unreasonably refused.
Anti-Discrimination
In accordance with the Renters' Rights Act 2025, we do not discriminate against prospective or existing tenants on the basis of receipt of housing benefit or other welfare benefits, having children in the household, or other protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010.
Repairs, Maintenance & Inspections
In accordance with Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, the landlord is responsible for keeping in repair: (a) the structure and exterior of the property; (b) installations for the supply of water, gas and electricity, and for sanitation; (c) installations for space heating and water heating.
The tenant is responsible for: keeping the property in a clean and tenantable condition; replacing items such as light bulbs and fuses; and preventing damage by negligence, misuse or wilful act.
Reporting of defects: The tenant must report any disrepair, defect, damage or service failure to the landlord in writing within 48 hours of becoming aware of it. Where the tenant fails to report promptly and the defect worsens as a result, any consequential damage may be attributed to the tenant's failure to report.
Inspections: The landlord may carry out routine inspections of the property up to four times per year, on no less than 24 hours' written notice as required by law. Photographic records may be taken at each visit.
Insurance
Buildings insurance is maintained by the landlord. Tenants are strongly advised to take out tenants' contents insurance to protect their personal belongings, as these are not covered by the landlord's policy.
Smoking
The smoking of any substance — including tobacco, cannabis and electronic cigarettes / vapes — is strictly not permitted anywhere inside the property or any communal area. The use of candles, open flames, joss sticks, oil burners or similar items is also prohibited. Tenants must not store flammable substances beyond small quantities of standard domestic products.
Alterations
Painting, wallpapering or any other decorative changes to the property require the landlord's prior written consent. Tenants must not install or change any locks, security fittings, TV aerials, satellite equipment or any external fitting without the landlord's prior written consent. Pictures may be hung using suitable picture hooks. Any consent granted may be made conditional on reinstatement at the end of the tenancy at the tenant's cost.
Utilities & Council Tax
Unless specifically stated as included in the tenancy agreement, the tenant is responsible for setting up and paying all utilities (gas, electricity, water, broadband), council tax and TV licence for the duration of the tenancy.
End of Tenancy
At the end of the tenancy, the property must be returned in the same condition as recorded on the check-in inventory, allowing for fair wear and tear. This includes a thorough clean, removal of all personal belongings, and final meter readings on the move-out date.
PRS Database & Landlord Ombudsman
Millennium Investments 2000 Ltd will register with the Private Rented Sector Database and the PRS Landlord Ombudsman in accordance with the Renters' Rights Act 2025, on the dates these schemes become operational.
