Manchester Student Homes

Like Lauren, I spent many an hour on the Manchester Student Homes website back in the days when I was at uni. Me and two of my friends didn’t like the idea of living just with girls, so we met up with a couple of boys off the forum who were looking for potential housemates. Unfortunately they were pretty weird (not the fault of MSH), so we decided to move into a house with just the three of us, which we also found through MSH.
The offices used to be in the precinct centre, so I can’t comment on them, but unlike in almost every other respect of life at the University of Manchester, we were treated in a friendly and polite manner by the staff here. After moving into our house we never needed to use the service again, but we had the peace of mind that should anything go wrong with our house or landlord, we had the support of a higher authority.
If grubby house shares aren’t really your thing, then they can also help you find places in private halls such as Cosmopolitan and Manchester Student Village.

Manchester Student Homes is the best way to get your university housing sorted when you move out of halls. This is very simple indeed.
I wont recount here all the possible things that can go wrong with landlords, deposits, rent and the like, if you rent through a random person! Just check out some of the other Unilocal reviews of nearby estate agents.
Manchester Student Homes vet all the landlords and all properties rented through them have been checked out and validated. This significantly reduces your chances of everything going completely wrong later in the year. Even if you think you can get a better deal elsewhere I recommend paying the little bit extra for security and their services.
Also, they have a great selection of properties to offer that are perfectly geared towards students. I have heard to many horror stories from people in the Fallowfield area and those around it, and not a single problem with Manchester Student Homes.
Excellent, and important, service.
Plus, there’s a café on site, check out ‘Café @ MSH’.
