Graduate professionals have access  to all our properties, including "student-solutions" properties, but because of the exemption available  to full time  students under the  Council Tax legislation, it is often not financially practical for working  graduate professionals to share a house with students, although this is possible provided the financial terms of this are fully understood by all involved.         

As members of the National Landlords Association (NLA) and an Accredited Landlord under the London Landlord Accreditation Scheme (LLAS) we meet the very highest professional standards. All properties offered to sharers are Housing Act 2004 compliant, meet the amenity standards set out in the legislation, and are managed in accordance with the Management of Houses in Multiple Occupation (England) Regulations 2006. As you would expect we are also registered with the Office of Fair Trading under the Consumer Credit Act and we are registered under the Data Protection Act.

All Deposits held in accordance with the latest regulations and additionally, our in-house litigation and legislation compliance support manager  is registered with the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) which is the regulatory arm of the Law Society of England and Wales.   

We are fair and honest and because we only let and manage our own properties (and not any properties belonging to other landlords) we can set and maintain our own high standards of client care. Tenants have the peace of mind which comes from knowing that all properties are owned and managed by us and that provided the tenancy terms are adhered to, renting from place homes will be hassle free, with no unexpected costs,  as unlike the vast majority of landlords and agents, we do not charge fees for routine services such as inventories and tenancy agreements and any other fees are clearly explained before a tenancy is entered into  and can normally be rolled forward  to the end of a tenancy. The volume of work also means that charges we incur from outside contractors is always competitive.        

place homes are a niche housing solutions provider. Renting from place homes  uniquely gives tenants  the benefits associated with renting through a large corporate agent (access to quality properties, 24 hour telephone + email back up 365 days a year, resources and impartiality) with none of the negatives (high fees, complex administration, delays, inflexibility and lack of office personnel continuity).

If you are a group of  graduate professional sharers and you think you would like to rent from place homes, please click here  to contact us and /or register your requirements.  

Unfortunately, we do not let rooms on an individual basis in any of our properties, therefore you must be a group willing to sign a joint tenancy agreement in order to rent a property from us.
