Unipol Housing

UNIPOL'S 2ND EDITION PROPERTY LISTING FOR 2013 AVAILABLE NOW

Unipol Housing provides student accommodation directly to around 2,000 students including 194 student families in self-catering provision.

Most of the stock available to us is either our own or is leased under a number of partnerships with local housing associations, Leeds City Council or private companies. It is through these partnerships that Unipol has been able to develop purpose-converted, high quality accommodation specifically for students. Part of our portfolio is managed on behalf of private owners and they are required to meet the same high standards as Unipol owned properties.

The Housing Team

Housing Management Officers have their own groups of properties for which they are responsible. They are on hand for tenants to contact should a problem arise. All tenants get a handbook and tenancy information and are encouraged to a view a property before renting it.

Unipol operates a repair reporting system where repairs are logged on an advanced computerised reporting system. Through a dedicated Out of Hours Emergency Call Centre, Unipol has staff and contractors available for emergencies 24 hours a day throughout the year. Open during office hours (and at some weekends during the summer), a large central office deals with routine enquiries and offers help where it's needed.

Unipol's Tenants

• Unipol treats each tenant as a valued customer. We take consumer information seriously: for example all tenants are given guidance (usually in written form) on how all the appliances in a dwelling work.
• Unipol helps house tenants from all Leeds colleges and both universities as well as Bradford University and Bradford College Unipol has a number of special arrangements with the universities and colleges to house some of their students through linked allocations systems.
