Rent will need to be paid in full via TransferWise BACS if you do not have a UK-based Guarantor or a guarantee from Housing Hand.
If you have a UK-based Guarantor or guarantee from Housing Hand then you can pay your Rent by Direct Debit on the first of the month either in 4, 10 or 12 instalments whichever is most convenient.
On the 18th August after results day. For those paying in instalments a months rent is due on this date and for those paying in full all the rent will be due.
Either party may terminate this Booking (and the Tenancy Agreement, if completed) by sending an email to the other party at any time during the 7 days after the date of this Booking (the “7 Day Cooling-Off Period”) unless the Move-In Date has occurred before then. If the Booking is cancelled during this period the Landlord will not charge the Tenant any sums due under the Tenancy Agreement and any Holding Deposit, Deposit, or advance of the Total Rent paid to the Landlord will be returned to the Tenant.
Q. What’s included in my rent?
All utility bills (gas, water and electricity), and your own private wifi network are all included in the rent. Free weekly grab and go breakfast, coffee, 24/7 staff on site and cleaning of communal areas is also included.
Q. Can I share my room?
Yes. Dual occupancy is accepted in Studio rooms only. Couple-friendly rooms are identified at every property and can be searched for within our booking system. Couples will both need to sign the Tenancy Agreement and be jointly/severely liable for the rent. A 20% uplift to rent is applied to all couple-friendly rooms.
Q. I am under 18, can I book with Novel?
Yes. We do students who are 17 years of age to book with us, but they should be turning 18 prior to move-in (or shortly thereafter).
Q. Who needs a guarantor?
If you would like to pay your rent in instalments, you will need to have a UK-based guarantor or a guarantee from Housing Hand.
If you are part of a couple booking a room with us and paying in instalments only the lead-tenant requires a Guarantor. However, as you are jointly and severely liable for the rent should they choose to not guarantee you both then your partner will require their own UK-based Guarantor.
If you are under 18 at the time of booking then you will require a Guarantor and that person must be your parent or legal guardian.
Q. Can I bring a pet?
No, unfortunately pets are not allowed. Of course, if you need a guide dog or working dog to assist you, please do get in touch to discuss your options with the Novel team.
