UniHomes launches in Scotland
UniHomes, the UK’s largest bills-included student accommodation platform, has officially launched it’s offering in Scotland. For letting agents north of the border, UniHomes will generate high-quality enquiries to fill their properties faster, while advertising each home as an all-inclusive let, by adding an uncapped utility package to the price and managing all aspects of the utility provision directly with the student tenants.
UniHomes advertises their partner agent’s entire student and sharer accommodation portfolio on its platform with bills included, for free. Unlike some other third-party platforms, there is no charge for uploading properties. The advantage to letting agents is that the hassle of marketing their properties is essentially removed, as UniHomes drives millions of house-hunting students to its platform each and ever year. Over the last 12 months, the UniHomes site has received over 2.5 million visitors which resulted in over 340,000 property enquiries distributed directly to partner agents.
In addition to the free advertising, UniHomes also provides an all-inclusive utility package to each property advertised, while taking control of managing every aspect of this – becoming the main point of contact for student tenants for the entire tenancy and removing the hassle of utility management for its partner agents. In addition, UniHomes utility packages include an uncapped energy provision, meaning that the properties advertised on the platform are more likely be left in good condition, free from mould and damp, as students don’t have to worry about the threat of potential over-usage. This inevitably delivers a much better experience to tenants, while helping to prevent avoidable maintenance works.
As the cost-of-living crisis eats away at an already stretched student loan, students are now more money conscious than ever before. The heightened need to be smarter with budgeting produces a much savvier buyer with a thirst for cost-saving and adds much more complexity to a letting market that already brings its unique challenges. UniHomes utility packages, paired with the additional benefit of free enquiry generation, helps to alleviate some of these challenges.
