Uni2Rent

Uni2Rent operates as a dedicated student letting and management company, primarily serving the student community in Nottingham. The firm's core mission is to simplify the student living experience by providing accommodation solutions designed to support academic pursuits and offer a streamlined, stress-free rental process. Uni2Rent approaches its services with a clear understanding of the unique challenges associated with student life, aiming to alleviate common concerns for its tenants. The company offers a diverse portfolio of student accommodation options to meet various needs and preferences.

These include single rooms, shared houses, modern flats, and larger six-bedroom homes. All properties managed by Uni2Rent are strategically positioned for convenience, located in close proximity to major universities and town centres within Nottingham. The firm is committed to providing student-friendly rental terms and ensuring that all homes are safe, secure, and well-maintained for their occupants. Uni2Rent extends its support beyond just property provision, focusing on simplifying the practical aspects of student rentals, particularly regarding utility management.

Many of the company's student properties feature flexible options, including all-inclusive bills that cover essential services such as unlimited high-speed WiFi, electricity, water, and gas. This approach allows students to concentrate on their studies and social life without the added burden of managing multiple utility accounts. A dedicated student support team is available to assist tenants throughout the entire rental journey, from the initial property search to the signing of agreements and the settling-in process. Typically, a guarantor is required when renting a student property through Uni2Rent.

For landlords and investors, Uni2Rent provides comprehensive property management and letting services tailored specifically for the student accommodation sector. The company offers a full management service that encompasses property valuations, advice on potential improvements, contract signing, and the collection of deposits and guarantor forms. This service also includes conducting inventories at the start and end of tenancies, organising all necessary certifications such as Energy Performance Certificates (EPC), Gas Safety Checks, and Portable Appliance Testing (PIRs). Uni2Rent further manages monthly property inspections, accompanied viewings, rent collection, prompt resolution of maintenance issues, and tenancy renewals.

Founded in Nottingham in 2012 by an entrepreneurial student, Uni2Rent has established itself as a specialist in the local student housing market. The company has demonstrated consistent growth, managing over 1,000 student rooms across Nottingham by 2019. In 2020, Uni2Rent expanded its portfolio further through the acquisition of Full House Management, which operated as Nottingham West Lettings, adding over 200 student rooms across 50 properties to its managed portfolio. As of early 2025, Uni2Rent became part of Lomond, a larger estate agency group, continuing its focus on providing student accommodation services within the Nottingham market.

The firm works with landlords of Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMOs) and large investment funds with purpose-built accommodation sites, and is associated with a broader suite of Uni2 brands designed to cater to various facets of student life.
