Rental Property Check Service in Dublin for Students
Have you found a rental property but you’re unable to visit it in person before paying? If so, our Rental Property Check Service can view it on your behalf, providing you with the key information and verification you need to proceed with peace of mind. This is where our new Rental Property Check Service comes in. Designed to ensure your peace of mind, this service allows you to have a professional inspect a property on your behalf before committing to a deposit or finalising the agreement.
The Need for a Rental Property Check Service
Students often find themselves in challenging situations when trying to secure accommodation remotely. Here’s why this service is essential:
- Verification of Property Legitimacy: Without in-person checks, students are at a higher risk of falling victim to scams or fraudulent listings.
- Confidence Before Payment: Many students hesitate to pay deposits without knowing if the property meets their expectations or is accurately represented.
- Safety Concerns: Students may worry about the condition of the property, its location, and whether it’s a safe choice.
- Time and Financial Constraints: Travelling to inspect each property is costly and impractical for students living far from Dublin.
Introducing StudentHouse’s Rental Property Check Service
Our Rental Property Check Service is designed to help students make informed decisions when securing accommodation remotely. Here’s how it works:
- Request Submission: Once you’ve received a property offer, send us a request including the property address, date, and any specific concerns to info@studenthouse.com. Requests are subject to availability, location, and timing. To secure our assistance, we strongly encourage students to submit their requests as early as possible.
- Confirmation: We confirm your booking, subject to capacity and property location.
- Payment: Each property check costs €119, payable upfront. Payments must be received at least 24 hours before the scheduled property check. For cancellations within 24 hours, a refund is issued minus a €50 cancellation fee.
- Property Check Attendance: Our housing specialist visits the property on your behalf. They take photos, conduct a video tour if requested, and inspect key aspects of the property. We also perform a landlord identity verification check via SecureProp.com for added peace of mind if requested.
- Report Delivery: After the property check, you receive a detailed report with photos, video (if requested), and insights, helping you make an informed decision.
Note: In some cases, StudentHouse may deduct the cost of this service from the fees for certain other services, if applicable.
Benefits of the Rental Property Check Service
Our service offers several advantages for students:
- Safety and Legitimacy: Verifies that the property exists, meets your expectations, and is a safe choice.
- Peace of Mind: Ensures you feel confident proceeding with the booking and deposit payment.
- Professional Guidance: Our experts provide insights that help you make an informed decision.
- Convenience: Saves time, money, and the hassle of travelling to inspect the property yourself.
- Additional Security: Optional landlord identity verification through SecureProp.com adds an extra layer of trust.
Why Online Checks Are Not Enough
While online research can provide some information about a property, it often falls short when it comes to verifying important details. Photos in listings may not accurately represent the current condition of the property, and virtual tours rarely capture essential aspects such as safety features, structural integrity, or issues like noise levels and surrounding area suitability. Without an in-person inspection, it’s nearly impossible to confirm whether a property truly meets your expectations, leaving renters vulnerable to misrepresentation or incomplete information.
