Move-In Guide for Students
Move-in Day
There is a full handover of the property to the first person moving in, including a walk around of the house to check the condition of the property and furniture provided.
The house should be clean and tidy when you move in, and during this handover we will mark on the inventory any items that are found to be defective/broken upon move in. Any items that require maintenance will be reported and fixed as soon as possible.
We do understand that not all defective issues and damage can be picked up when the house handover is conducted, so we ask that you report any maintenance issues to us immediately and email us with any damage to be added to the inventory within 48 hours of moving in.
Essentials to Bring With You
