Advice for landlords
When looking for private sector housing, the majority of our students use our website www.bathstudentpad.co.uk.
A typical advert on the database costs £35.25, and to qualify, your property must meet certain criteria. It must have a valid Gas Safety Certificate, for example, and if it’s accredited, it will be prioritised on the database.
All the information you need to register your property can be found on the Bath Student Pad Landlords page. Private landlords can contact us with any queries by calling 01225 383111, or via e-mail.
