Information for Students

Please check our Student Letting List for all available properties. As our current tenants are only required to give us 28 days’ notice of their intention to terminate their lease, properties are becoming available weekly. All our available properties will also be advertised on Facebook and Instagram. Follow us here:

If you see a property you are interested in, please contact the office on 01334 477774 or email townandgown@rollos.co.uk to request a video tour and application details 

If you wish to be considered for the tenancy of the property after the video tour has been viewed please complete our Student Application Form.  

We require the following references: 

– Guarantor Form – Town & Gown from a parent or guardian 

– Current Landlord/Warden reference 

– Character reference (from an appropriate person who has known you for a number of years e.g. lecturer, teacher, former employer) 

– All successful applicants will be required to produce ID in the form of a driving license or passports. 

Our properties get snapped up fast, so to avoid disappointment and secure your property as soon as possible it is important to have your reference ready. Once we have your reference and they have been checked and approved an in person viewing can of course be arranged at this time, you can then move onto the next step of paying the deposit and signing your lease. 

The final step in securing your property of choice is placing your deposit. This is usually the equivalent of one months’ rent and is held securely for the duration of the tenancy. Your deposit will be treated in accordance with the Tenancy Deposit Protection regulations, and you will be lodged with Safe Deposits Scotland.  

The first payment of rent is due prior to the date of entry. Please ensure you set up your standing order to allow rental funds to be cleared by the due date.  We are unable to issue keys for properties where rent is still outstanding. Please remember the rent does not include utilities or WIFI and it is essential you take this in to account when planning your budget. 

In the event of any maintenance issues occurring, please email townandgown@rollos.co.uk with a clear description of the problem and we will have someone attend to this as soon possible. Alternatively you can call our office on 01334 477774. 

We carry out routine inspections to ensure the property is being kept to a high standard. All our HMO properties have safety checks carried out on a monthly basis. Students do not need to be in property at the time of the inspection, however will be notified prior to the date set.
