Viewing Request Form

In the current situation we have a duty to protect our current housemates, our staff and the wider community
We therefore require some of your information prior to arranging a viewing for you
Firstly, we require you to understand the basic rules of living in a shared house, please find them below (not all our accomodation requires you to share the bathroom). Some of our accomodation comprise studio style flats which have a communal kitchen, so those rules would apply.

- Clean the shower before you get out of it
- Clean the sink & toilet when you use them so it’s clean
- Put the toilet seat and lid down after use (shared bathrooms !)
- Buy your own toilet roll (shared bathrooms !)
- Wash up & wipe kitchen surfaces after every meal so the kitchen is ready for the next person to use
- Place a layer of foil in the grill and oven so it will catch any grease & fat. Replace after use.
- Cover things in the microwave so it doesn’t get splattered.
- Emptying the bin is everyone’s responsibility (follow the schedule, or else!)
- Put the wheelie bins out on collection day (check WhatsApp group Icon)
- If you spill something in the house clean it up immediately
- Do not remove the mattress protector from your bed. You will be liable for any stains on the mattress. Yuck!
- Do not go in other people’s food cupboards or fridge/freezer space and help yourself.
- No loud music or TVs in your room (use earphones) 🔇
- Keep the communal TV down
- If you smoke, please do so outside and close the door so smoke doesn’t come into the house. Cigarette butts to be disposed of.
- No guests after midnight (apart from the occasional stopover of boyfriends/girlfriends - but not during a lockdown)
- You are responsible for the behaviour of any guests & will be breaching your tenancy agreement if they behave in a way that is inappropriate or cause any damage (no guests during a lockdown)
- Try to remember to close doors quietly, fire doors do have a habit of banging shut but they are meant to!
- Your housemates may have work in the morning even if you don’t so please be respectful of their peace and quiet at all times
