    Frequently Asked Questions

    When am I due to check out?

    After your time with them at the accommodation I am sure it will be difficult to leave them behind! Your latest check out date is the end date of your tenancy. You are able to leave prior to your tenancy end date, you will just need to sign at Reception to inform the onsite property team that you have left and do not intend on returning.

    What do I need to do to check out?

    You will need to ensure that your room (and kitchen) is left clean, tidy and free of waste. All of your items need to be removed, with the room left in the same condition that you found it. You simply then will need to sign at Reception to say that you have left

    What is the latest time for my check out?

    You will need to check with the onsite team in advance of your checkout, usually the check out time is 14:00

    What happens if I left something in my room after I have checked out?

    Once you have left your room and checked out you should have taken all of your items with you, therefore all the items left behind are disposed of without liability. You must ensure that all of your items are taken with you.

    Can you store my luggage for me once I have left?

    No. They are not able to store any items following your departure so you will need to take them all with you, or organise for a storage company to assist

    Can I leave my items in my room if I have rebooked for next year?

    If you have rebooked for next year however your current tenancy ends before the beginning of your next tenancy, then you will need to speak to the onsite team to have a summer short stay tenancy to fill in this gap.

    I forgot to add something onto my inventory form, will I be charged?

    Yes most likely you will be, the inventory form is sent out so that you can add any issues when you move in. The onsite team also do a full inspection of the rooms prior to your arrival. Please do speak to your onsite team if you have any questions

    An item in the kitchen has been broken, will I be charged for it?

    The Accommodation does charge for damages in the rooms and communal areas. In the kitchen this is a shared space with shared responsibilities and unless one person takes full responsibility (and therefore the full charge), then this will be split between all people in the cluster.

    When will the onsite team need access to my room / kitchen?

    When access is required the onsite property team will give you prior notice.

    Regular maintenance and health and safety checks are required throughout the building, if regular access is required to your communal areas then you will be informed either in your welcome pack or on the noticeboard in your kitchen

    When are the room inspections?

    As a part of your tenancy you will have inspections 3 / 4 times a year, these are organised by the onsite team who will give you prior notice.

    My room does not look exactly like the website – can I move?

    All of the images on their website show the representation of the rooms and room types in the accommodation, and are for marketing purposes only. Your room will have the same fixtures, fittings and equipment although it may be in a slightly different set up or layout.

    Can I have friends stay over with me overnight?

    With the accommodation you truly are home, therefore your guests are more than welcome to stay over with you. They would ask that you let both the onsite team know, and also take into consideration your flatmates. Guests are able to stay for a maximum of 3 nights, for further information please speak to your accommodation team.

    You are solely responsible for your guests, and you would be liable if they cause any complaints or damage.

    Do I have to be there when my post is delivered?

    Their team are more than happy to assist you with this, you will need to agree to them signing for your post when arriving. They will take in your parcels, store them safely and let you know when you have an item to collect – they will be using Parcel Tracker to log and inform you of your parcel arriving – here they are able to ensure your parcel is carbon neutral for the ‘last leg’ of its journey. They can only hold your parcels for 14 days before they must return them, as they have very limited space to store items.

    How do I have my post delivered?

    You will need to ensure that your post is labelled correctly;

    YOUR NAME,

    YOUR ROOM

    ACCOMMODATION NAME

    1ST LINE OF ADDRESS

    CITY

    POSTCODE

    Maintenance issues will be completed;

    Priority One – Emergency repairs – are completed, and or made safe, within 24 hours of a report of a defect

    Priority Two – Urgent Repairs – are completed within five working days of report of the defect

    Priority Three – Non-Urgent Repairs – are completed within 28 days of a report of a defect

    Can someone else check in for me?

    No. You have to be able to present your ID and sign for your key yourself, even if you are going to be late you need to be present to check in.

    Do I need to let you know when I am checking in?

    You will be sent an email from your property team asking for this information, this is so they can prepare for your arrival and have someone available to check you in faster after your journey – they do recommend that you let them know.

    Can you store my luggage before I arrive?

    What is the Leap Guarantor Waiver?

    The Leap Guarantor Waiver is an alternative to the traditional UK-based guarantor requirement for student accommodation. It allows qualifying students to secure their tenancy without naming a guarantor, by paying a non-refundable waiver fee built into their rent. Once active, Leap serves as the guarantor in case of financial default by the tenant.

    • Only students are eligible under Leap’s underwriting guidelines.
    • Non-students cannot use the waiver.

    What are the key benefits for students?

    • No need to provide a guarantor
    • No separate payment—the waiver fee is rolled into rent
    • Speeds up the booking and contract process
    • Ideal for international students or those without UK-based family support

    How is the waiver selected during booking?

    During the Concurrent booking journey, students are shown two tenancy options: Option: Standard

    • Label: “UK GUARANTOR MAY BE REQUIRED”
    • Weekly Rent: Lower
    • Guarantor Required: Yes
    • Includes Waiver: No

    Option: Waiver

    • Label: “UK GUARANTOR NOT REQUIRED”
    • Weekly Rent: Higher
    • Guarantor Required: No
    • Includes Waiver: Yes

    The waiver must be selected at the time of booking. It cannot be added manually later by staff or admins.

    What checks are needed after booking?

    Staff must:

    • Confirm the “UK GUARANTOR NOT REQUIRED” tag is present in Concurrent.
    • Confirm the Leap External Reference ID is populated.
    • Check Guarantor Status: Under Review / Approved / Ready to Sign / Waiver Declined.

    Do Not:

    • Modify tenancy type to add Leap manually.
    • Change Leap External Reference ID.
    • Combine waiver and non-waiver students in a joint liability agreement.

    Who is eligible for the waiver?

    • Must be a registered full-time student at a recognised institution.
    • Must select the waiver through the online booking flow.
    • Must sign the tenancy agreement in full.
    • Not applicable for non-students, subtenants, or corporate lets.

    What happens if a tenant cancels or transfers their tenancy?

    • The waiver fee can be cancelled and removed from the original booking.
    • The incoming tenant can choose either:
    • A waiver-backed tenancy, or
    • The standard guarantor route.
    • A new Leap policy will be generated if the incoming tenant selects the waiver.

    What if a student does not arrive (Non-Arrival)?

    A non-arrival means:

    • Tenant signed agreement, is covered by waiver, but fails to move in.

    Claim requirements:

    • Submit claim within 120 days of tenancy start date.
    • Provide:Signed accommodation agreement Written proof of intent to arrive, dated within 90 days of start

    Accepted proof of intent:

    • Signed tenancy agreement
    • Email from student confirming move-in plan

    Payment timelines:

    • Leap pays claim within 10 business days of complete documentation.
    • You may be contacted by Reserv for clarifications or ledger updates.

    What if a tenant falls into arrears (Default)?

    Claim requirements:

    • Submit within 120 days from missed payment.
    • Provide:Signed tenancy agreement Full rent ledger Copy of written notice (within 7 days of default) demanding payment

    What happens next?

    • Claims handled by Reserv on behalf of Leap.
    • Payment within 10 business days once documents are provided.
    • Monthly follow-ups request updated ledgers.
    • If student repays later, overpayment must be returned.

    How does ongoing claim monitoring work?

    • Reserv checks monthly for further payments.
    • Updated ledgers may be requested.
    • Any over-recovery (e.g. student later repays) must be returned.

    What operational tips should staff remember?

    • Students must choose waiver at booking—no retroactive changes.
    • Never manually edit Leap fields.
    • Waiver can be removed if tenancy cancelled; new tenant can choose waiver or not.
    • Waiver is student-only (not for non-student contracts).
    • Submit claims within 120 days with full documentation.
    • Proof of intent must be dated within 90 days and clearly show intent to move in.
    • Claims must be submitted via Leap’s online portal (not by email).

    What script can staff use when advising a student?

    “If you don’t have a UK-based guarantor, you can book using the Leap Guarantor Waiver. Just select the rent option marked ‘UK GUARANTOR NOT REQUIRED’ during your booking. The fee is included in your rent, and there’s no separate payment or guarantor form needed. It’s a quick, easy way to confirm your accommodation.”

    What is the quick reference checklist?

    Booking: Student selects “UK Guarantor Not Required”
    Post-Booking: Confirm Leap ID & waiver tag in Concurrent
    Contract Status: Await “Guarantor Approved” or “Ready to Sign”
    Takeover: Remove waiver and reissue option for new tenant
    Claims: Submit within 120 days with required documents
    Non-Arrivals: Provide signed agreement + proof of intent
    Defaults: Provide rent ledger + signed agreement + 7-day notice
