Housing support
Rent Right is a joint initiative between the University and the Guild of Students to empower our students to make the best housing hunting decisions during their time at Birmingham. Together, we have created guides to help you make the transition into the private housing sector as easily as possible.
Looking for your new home
We give you all the advice you need to make a confident and informed choice when picking your new home. We cover everything from choosing your new housemates to where’s best to start your housing search, so you don’t miss a thing.

Moving into your new home
We let you know all the things you should do when you first set foot in the house you’ll be living in for the year. This includes how to fill in an inventory, how to set up your bills, and what to expect from your housemates as you all settle in.
