What you should know before your child signs

• •The tenancy is fixed term. Rent is owed for the full contract period even if your child moves out early, unless an approved replacement tenant takes over.
• •No guarantor is required here. All ten listed 2026/27 payment plans are marked no guarantor required, which is unusual and removes a significant hurdle for overseas families.
• •All bills are inside the rent. Cable, internet, water, electricity, heating, gas and contents insurance are covered, so no separate utility bills arrive.
• •Council tax does not apply. Full time students are exempt, but your child must obtain an exemption certificate from their university to prove it.
• •The location trades commute for cost. Rent is well below zone one, but check your child's campus distance carefully before treating the saving as net.
• •Security is comprehensive. 24 hour security, CCTV, video surveillance, a fire system and controlled access sit alongside a staffed reception.
• •The booking fee is prepaid rent. It is non refundable outside limited circumstances and goes towards the first instalment rather than being returned.

• •Arrival. Heathrow is only 15.5 kilometres away, making this one of the easier London addresses to reach on arrival day. Take the Piccadilly line to Green Park then the Jubilee line to Wembley Park, roughly 70 minutes, or pre-book a transfer if you are travelling with heavy luggage.
• •No UK guarantor. This is the property's standout advantage. All ten listed 2026/27 payment plans are marked as requiring no guarantor, so you can select an instalment plan without arranging a UK based sponsor or paying for a guarantor service.
• •Visa safety net. Under No Visa No Pay, a refused UK student visa cancels the tenancy and refunds rent paid. Written confirmation and the official refusal letter must reach the property within 72 hours of the decision, so keep your documents organised.
• •Setup. Open a UK bank account in your first fortnight using your tenancy letter as proof of address, register at Park Medical Clinic or The Welford Health Centre nearby, and buy a UK SIM at the Designer Outlet. Collect your BRP within ten days of arrival.
• •Home food. Brent is one of London's most internationally supplied boroughs. Ealing Road in Wembley, a short bus ride away, is nationally known for Gujarati and South Asian groceries, sweets and vegetarian restaurants, alongside Eastern European and Middle Eastern shops throughout the area.
