How does Cloud support students moving away for the first time?

Waving your grown-up children off to university can be an emotional time. But we’re here to make sure that they’re fully supported in all their accommodation needs. Our experience and good relationships with the Students’ Union and Student Services from Lincoln University and Bishop Grosseteste means we can help smooth out any difficulties quickly and easily. We operate a 24/7 emergency line, so there’s always someone on hand.

How do we look round a place we’re interested in?

If you want to view a property, it’s a good idea if as many of your group as possible are there – you can look at up to three properties at a time. You can call us to arrange a viewing, or just click on the property you’d like to see.

How do I pay my deposit and rent?

You’ll need to pay a deposit on the tenancy start date.  The deposit is usually equivalent to a months rent, but will be agreed when you apply for the property. 

Your deposit is held in a government approved deposit scheme 'Tenancy Deposit Scheme'. For more information click here

Rent is paid monthly by standing order, and you’ll need to pay a month’s rent at the start of your tenancy.

How do I know my children are in safe hands?

We only work with reputable landlords offering good-quality properties, and all student properties are accredited by the University of Lincoln and Bishop Grosseteste University. The properties are furnished with utility bills included - gas, water, electricity, TV license and broadband, utilties subject to a fair usage policy as detailed in the Tenancy Agreement. Or view the allowance here.
