Unipol Student Homes is a not-for-profit organisation in an unique position within the Leeds student letting market. Unipol has long established relationships with the four universities, their student unions and a number of Colleges around Leeds including the Leeds College of Music, the Northern School of Contemporary Dance and Leeds City College.

In practice this means that students are actively recommended to use Unipol above all others to secure their accommodation and all of our publicity is welcomed on campus and in their student halls.

Unipol is the most important place to advertise if you want unprecedented access to students to market your properties. 

As landlords we all know that the student rental market is dynamic and continually changing. We are currently operating in a surplus market, where it is increasingly challenging to let our properties. Flexibility and effective marketing are central to a successful let and Unipol is committed to assisting landlords and managing agents in achieving this.

There has never been a better time to advertise with Unipol.
