TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This is a free service that the University offers, subject to available resources.
Warwick Accommodation will only revise and advertise your details every six
weeks; and reserves the right to refuse/withdraw advertisement of a vacancy,
revise or advertise sooner or later than the expected time schedule without
prior consultation. Warwick Accommodation does not guarantee to fill your
vacancies. Maximum of two rooms in each house are allowed. If you let your
room(s), please inform the office as we endeavour to keep our lists up to date. You
also need to inform the office if your vacancy is not taken within six weeks and you
wish to continue advertising as it will automatically be deleted off the list.
Please note that this is not a service to advertise a self-contained property or a
vacancy in a shared private house. You must own and live in the property full-time.
Should you want to make any amendments to your advert or wish to re-advertise an
old advert please email us at staffandfamilyhousing@warwick.ac.uk
Gas
I am aware that, by law all landlords are responsible for making sure that gas
appliances are maintained in good order and checked for safety at least every 12
months by a Gas Safe Registered engineer. I am legally obliged to keep a record of
the safety checks and issue it to my tenants. Breaking regulations could result in a
substantial fine and/or a custodial sentence.

Engineers (IEE) recommends that the fixed wiring circuits are checked for safety at
least every five years.

RESIDENT OWNER OFFERING SHARED ACCOMMODATION
(LODGINGS)
Warwick Accommodation provides information and advice to students and staff
seeking shared accommodation within the local area. Please note that many of our
short term visitors may not have their own transport and therefore properties on a
direct bus route to the University campus are more likely to attract interest.

Under this scheme, the owner will deal directly with any prospective tenant. This
will involve agreeing (in advance) the terms of the let i.e. length of the let, rent,
notice period, how bills are to be paid etc. Rent is normally paid on a monthly basis
and it is advisable that you issue your tenant with a receipt and consider providing
your tenant with a rent book. Further information can be found at:
www.direct.gov.uk
For the current academic year, tenants are paying approximately £65 - £85 per
week inclusive of bills when lodging with the owner. It is a good idea to have a
written agreement setting out the rights and responsibilities of the tenant and of the
owner. It is also useful to have an inventory of everything in the house to avoid any
misunderstanding.

Your tenants are entitled to privacy in their accommodation. This means that you
should not go into their room without their permission. If you need to gain entry, you
must let them know beforehand and arrange to call at a convenient time. If your
tenants pay a deposit when they move in, you must return this when they leave.
You may deduct the cost of any damage or breakages, but you cannot make
tenants pay for fair wear and tear on your property.
RENT: £
You must ensure that your property is safe for your tenants. The Environmental
Services Department (Coventry 02476 833333 or Warwick 01926 450000) will give
you advice on matters relating to safety.
