Landlords
Expert student property management from Cloud Student Homes.
The Who and the Why.
Cloud Student Homes is one of the UK’s leading specialist Purpose-Built Student Accommodation Lettings & Facilities Management operators, serving the country’s world-renowned higher education sector.
Currently responsible for over 2,800 student beds across 19 sites in 11 leading university towns and cities across the UK, we have enjoyed rapid growth during 2019-2020.
In 2020, we were appointed to manage and let a further 155-room purpose-built student accommodation site in Sheffield, which is due to open in 2021. With aspirations to acquire additional sites in more locations, we hope to build on the success of the Cloud Student Homes brand well into the next decade.
With excellent insight into student preferences and requirements, Cloud Student Homes offer affordable, safe, high-quality properties that offer modern, spacious accommodation alongside outstanding facilities, with a wealth of rewards for landlords too. We are committed to delivering a high calibre of services in a professional and transparent manner, to ensure both landlords and students are kept happy.
Our Lettings Service.
We understand that being a landlord comes with a great deal of responsibility and risk, as well as reward. Selecting the right lettings service for you and your property is a substantial decision, to ensure you balance all three factors.
Whether you’re a seasoned landlord, looking to develop your portfolio, or just starting out with your first student property investment, we’re here to help.
We’re pleased to offer a choice of block management options, as well as a fully-managed lettings service – perfect for those that wish to ‘rent it and forget it’. We charge an affordable annual management fee, which covers all aspects of managing your property – from finding & interviewing tenants, to rent collection, property inspections & maintenance.
Finding the right tenants
The key to a successful tenancy is in finding the right tenants, which is why we vet all prospective applicants before anyone moves in. We check to ensure references are genuine and complete, confirm the occupier’s status for their ‘Right to Rent’ and perform any ID checks that need doing.
Property Management
All our sites have dedicated on-site Accommodation Managers who will look after your property on a day-to-day basis. They also provide tenants with a direct line of contact should they have any issues or questions during their tenancy.
We use a market-leading app, which is a great system for tenants to easily access and sign their contact, access their rent payment schedule, or find information provided by their Accommodation Manager. It’s also useful for reporting property maintenance issues. Using this technology is a great way to ensure everyone is kept up to date conveniently and clearly.
We also organise multiple property inspections throughout the year, to ensure they are being looked after. This also helps us to identify and rectify any issues promptly, should they arise.
Tenants also have access to a 24-hour emergency helpline to give them peace of mind should a problem arise at any time of the day or night.
In short, we look after all aspects of the day to day management of your property so you don’t have to worry. With transparent communication, we work to ensure we do an amazing job both for you and the tenants.
