For the people students ask about housing.
Students arrive in a new town with a deadline. A good housing site puts every room in one place and makes the landlord easy to reach.
A student housing website, page by page.

Rent, bills, furnished and available from.
The Property pack shows each place's key facts in one block: type (room, flat, studio), rent per month, bedrooms, bathrooms, furnished, pets and available from. Add your own fields for what students ask about: bills included, contract length, couples welcome, minutes to campus.
- Rent and fees per month for every rental.
- Floor plans and virtual tours from Matterport, Kuula, YouTube or Vimeo.
Draw the area around campus.
Students draw the streets they want on the map, or pick a radius around the campus, and see rent on every pin. The map uses OpenStreetMap, so there is no map bill.
Viewings booked on the listing.
A Book a viewing button offers 30-minute slots, in person or by video, up to 60 days ahead, which helps students who are still abroad. The landlord accepts or declines, both get an email, and a reminder goes out the day before.
- Open days: up to 10 dates per property.
- Free for both sides: no payment is taken for a viewing.
Approved landlords, with their own pages.
Approve landlords and agents before they post, and give each a page with all its properties. Agents import listings from a Kyero or XML feed, or a CSV file, and run the import again to update.
- Students post rooms free, landlords pay per listing or monthly.
- Price-drop emails to students who saved a room.

What does a student housing website need?
Rooms and flats with rent per month and the facts students check, a map around campus, a way to contact landlords or book viewings, and rules about who may post.
Can landlords pay to list on my student housing website?
Yes. Charge per listing, sell featured places, or offer agents a monthly membership. Students can post rooms free.
Can students book viewings online?
Yes. A Book a viewing button offers 30-minute slots, in person or by video, up to 60 days ahead, and the landlord accepts or declines.
Can it take rent or deposits?
No. There is no rent collection, tenant screening or contract signing. Students and landlords agree those directly.
Can I limit it to my university?
Yes. Allow sign-up only from your university email domains, or approve landlords before they post.
Is it an off-campus housing listing platform for a university office?
Yes. A housing office can run it, approve landlords and keep the rules on its own pages. Schools can also ask about the free education plan.
Does it import from letting agents?
Yes. Kyero and XML feeds from a link or a file, or a CSV file. Each import is run from the admin.
