Summer Lets


Why have a Summer Let?


There may be many reasons why a student may choose to have a summer let. Perhaps they need to come back to University for results day and their graduation and need a place to stay with their family. It may be that they have a summer job and need a living space in between regular student rents. Or possibly a student may just wish to hang out in the city and invite their friends to join them.

Why go home for summer when you have the opportunity to continue your university experience with your friends and family beside you. A summer let at Unihousing is a great way for students to get their family involved during the summer break.

Graduation





For some students, a summer let is an opportunity to invite their family and friends to join them for results day and their graduation. This offers the perfect situation where everyone can get together to celebrate a milestone mark in someone’s life.

Reaching results day is an achievement of its own. For many students, this will be one of the biggest milestones of their life, and for many parents the proudest moment of their lives. Unihousing, this summer, is offering great accommodation that can be rented by family and friends alike. This ensures that everyone can be together to celebrate their loved one's graduation.

Making Memories


Not only is there the opportunity to celebrate the achievements of friends and family, but also to spend time and make memories as well. Our summer lets are available right through the summer and into the early weeks of September, thereby offering  a person ample time to catch up and reminisce on their time at the University of Birmingham.



Summer Job


Students from the university may also be continuing education and jobs over the summer period. This will mean they may require a place to live for the 3 or so months while their current contract is up and they are waiting for their new contract to start. Our summer lets offer them the perfect opportunity to stay in Birmingham whilst they continue to learn and earn money. This is a great alternative to getting transport to work every day and could even save them some money.

Starting University - visiting Birmingham


Those students who are starting a new year in September of 2017 may also find use for a summer let, by inviting their friends to enjoy all the fantastic things Birmingham has to offer whilst visiting the university campus. Birmingham can provide many great days out, offering a range of activities for anyone and everyone. Birmingham’s vibrant and busy streets offer a great day’s activity, not to mention Selly Oak’s brilliant night life.



A person can make the most of their stay by enjoying all that Birmingham has to offer. When friends rent accommodation that is all in close proximity, this eases the way for a fun filled and worthwhile experience.

Studios: Great Accommodation for Birmingham Students

With exams out of the way, if you haven’t already got your student accommodation sorted now is the time to consider a studio. Most of the houses and flats in Selly Oak have now let. Studios are a great option for those who didn’t manage to book a house in time for the next academic year, or just want some peace and quiet away from noisy housemates. With Unihousing you have an easy way to start these plans, and there are few better options than one of our newly converted studios. Situated within Selly Oak, Unihousing is a registered letting agent that excel in providing student accommodation, and they are currently in the position to offer a selection of studios.

More About Studios In Selly Oak

Studios are quite an easy and simple way to live. If you’ve never lived away from home before, this is perfect, because living in a studio means managing your accommodation is not too difficult, so there’s less pressure on you. If you have lived away from home before and have previously been a tenant in a house living with a group of others, opting for a studio may be a welcome change of pace for you. It’s worth thinking about, as living in a house necessitates more work than a studio to keep it in a pleasant condition. Living in a house can sometimes require making compromises, whereas in a studio, you are in control and you make the decisions.

Of course, being a tenant in a studio does mean that you will be living on your own, but this may be something that is suited to you. One advantage that living on your own provides, is general peace and quiet as well as the opportunity to feel like you have your own space and independence. Another positive aspect of living in a studio is that they are tailor-made for what would commonly be thought of as student life? Given that the layout and features of studios are very basic, they are ideal for a lifestyle that revolves around going out and socialising; one where the occupant is not too concerned with the idea of being cosy and settled in a comfy little home, but would rather be out having fun when they are not attending lectures or studying at University.
