If you need to to let out a property you should consider using a Student Tenancy Agreement. This page will explain why and how to create your next Student Tenancy Agreement.
A student tenancy agreement is a type of assured shorthold tenancy agreement (also known as an AST) which allows a landlord to let a property to one or more tenants who are students. The term of a student tenancy agreement is 12 months and will end at the end of the 12 months.
Students will usually take a property for an academic year which is why the term of the tenancy is fixed and set to 12 months. Student tenants are usually asked to provide a guarantor to guarantee their rent should they not be able to pay their rent.
A guarantor agreement can be established separately to the tenancy agreement or alternatively a guarantor can guarantee the rent by signing a student tenancy agreement with a guarantor clause.
A student tenancy agreement will also specify the student and the landlord's respective rights and obligations to ensure a smooth tenancy.
