Student Tenant

5

A central online location for students to find accommodation

Studenttenant.com is the largest national online student letting agent in the UK. It is growing rapidly and currently works with over 3,000 private landlords, private student hall providers and universities to advertise over 35,000 beds. The company is revenue generating at £500 TTM. It is also starting to expand internationally in Barcelona and Singapore.

Filling the gap left by the absence of central global sites for students covering all types of housing including private properties, studenttenant.com offers landlords listings as well as additional services such as tenancy agreements, deposit handling and a full-service management package.

It recently launched the sector’s first “Find a Housemate” tool and is developing the UK’s first advertising portal for the rapidly growing Build-to-Rent sector. The team is led by Danielle Cullen who has extensive experience working with students, universities and housing.
