A bit about HOP

We’re old hands when it comes to matching students to their ultimate accommodation. First as Let Leeds and now as HOP, we have been leading the way in lettings since 2009. Nothing gives us more of a fuzzy feeling inside than helping students find their perfect match.

Our motto is ‘Every Move Matters’ and it’s an ethos that captures how we feel about everything we do here at HOP. From start to finish, we aim to offer every student a truly top notch and personal experience.

We’ve even won a number of awards for our customer service and have received heaps of positive reviews on Feefo from happy landlords and tenants.

Our friendly team – many of whom were once students themselves – are here to help you find the home that is right for you.

Our Process: 9 steps to your perfect student home

Step 1: Start the search

Search our available student accommodation.

Whether you’d prefer to browse our website, check out Rightmove or scroll through our social channels, the first step in finding your perfect student home is to take a look at our properties and see what takes your fancy.

Click here for our property search or we can also send our hottest picks straight to your inbox, just register your details here.

Step 2: Call us to arrange a viewing

Call us to arrange a viewing

Give us a call to book in a viewing and we can match you to other suitable properties at the same time.

All our staff are super friendly and will take you through the options available to you, just give the Leeds Team a call on 0113 322 9324.

We’ve invested in high tech cameras and virtual tour technology so you can fully explore the property online without even leaving home.

Step 3: Viewings

Viewings

All our properties have virtual tours but for in-person viewings, we have adapted our processes in line with the latest Covid-19 advice.

This means we are taking all the necessary precautions and can only attend viewings with a maximum of two people. We’ll also need to ask you whether you’ve had any symptoms or if you’ve been asked to self-isolate, before the viewing – as well as checking the same with the current tenants.

One of our knowledgeable student property experts will meet you at the property show you round, fully equipped with PPE.

Step 4: Reserve the property

Reserve the property

Fallen in love with your dream student home?

We’ll fill out a Pre-Tenancy Agreement with you, which details key information regarding the Tenancy. In addition, we’ll take a Holding Deposit to take it off the market, this is usually one week’s rent.

You will then have 15 days to complete your application or it goes back on the market! Your Holding Deposit will go towards your Deposit and transferred to a deposit account upon signing the Tenancy Agreement.

Step 5: Complete your application

Complete your application

Completing your application is easy using the HOP Online Application.

Fill in the details and submit the required documents – all electronically! You can even do it from your phone.

These details will form part of the final Tenancy Agreement that you and your housemates will need to sign at the end of the process.

Step 6: Guarantor paperwork

Guarantor paperwork

As a Student you will require a Guarantor who will guarantee that you will pay your rent for the duration of the Tenancy. If for some reason, you don’t pay your rent, then the Guarantor will be liable for it. A Guarantor is usually a parent or guardian earning over £25,000 p/a.

As you complete your HOP Online Application with their details, the Guarantor will be emailed a link to fill in their information too and upload the relevant documents online. The Guarantor will then be referenced and credit checked as part of the application process.

Step 7: The property is yours!

The property is yours!

Once the application, paperwork and referencing is complete, the final Tenancy Agreement will be sent electronically to all parties to sign. Once signed, we’ll check everything is as it should be, counter sign it, and the balance of the Deposit becomes due. The final, signed Tenancy Agreement will be issued with prescribed information automatically, once completed.

You’ll then need to pay the remainder of your Deposit. The Holding Deposit carries forward to become part of your deposit, and the whole thing is held by the DPS (Deposit Protection Service), which holds it securely throughout your Tenancy.

Step 8: Pay first month's rent

Pay first month’s rent

As it will state in your Tenancy Agreement, 14 days before your Tenancy start date, you’ll need to pay your first rent instalment and arrange key collection dates with the HOP team.

It’s important you set up a standing order to pay the initial rent payment by this deadline, as we can’t release keys until these funds are cleared.

On a joint tenancy, where you are sharing with housemates, all parties will need to have paid their first rent instalment in full before the keys can be released to anyone in the group.

Step 9: Move-in day!

Move in day!

Book an appointment with the team to collect your keys and Tenancy Pack either on, or a few days after, your Tenancy start date (usually around the 1st July for students).

Don’t forget that you will need to bring your passport/ID with you so we can release the keys.

Then you can move in to your perfect pad and set about making it your new home!
