Student Housing
#1 Student Lettings Agency
If you’re a landlord with student properties to rent in Lincoln, Nottingham or Hull, then one thing is non-negotiable: your student lettings agency must be advertising your property on Rightmove.
Rightmove is the UK’s most visited property platform, receiving over 1.9 billion visits in 2024 alone. For landlords who want to maximise rental income, minimise void periods, and get the best return on investment, listing your student rental on Rightmove is no longer optional — it’s essential.
So if your current student letting agent isn’t using Rightmove or only posts a handful of listings there, it’s time to reconsider who’s marketing your property.
Rightmove is the largest online property portal in the UK. It dominates the market for both residential sales and lettings — including student rental accommodation. With over 80% of online property searches starting on Rightmove, it’s the first place students and parents look when finding term-time accommodation.
Rightmove is also where students from overseas and other UK cities search first, often before even visiting the area. That kind of reach is unmatched by university noticeboards, social media ads or even agency websites alone.
When it comes to exposure, nothing beats Rightmove. It receives over 150 million visits each month and dominates search engine rankings for every major property-related keyword, including:
Student housing in Lincoln
Student letting agents in Nottingham
Student accommodation near University of Hull
Houses to rent near University of Lincoln
f your student rental isn’t on Rightmove, it simply won’t be seen by most prospective tenants.
According to Rightmove’s own Rental Trends Tracker (Q1 2025), properties listed on their portal received an average of 12–30 tenant enquiries per listing, depending on location and type.
For landlords trying to let large HMOs or properties outside the core student area, this kind of visibility is crucial. Rightmove helps you let properties faster, even in tougher rental seasons.
One of the biggest costs to student landlords is an empty property between tenancies. A single void month can wipe out over 8% of your annual rental income.
By listing your property with a student lettings agency that advertises on Rightmove, you dramatically reduce this risk. The sooner a student sees your listing, the sooner your property is booked.
Rightmove has tailored search filters specifically for the student market, allowing tenants to search by:
“Bills Included”
“Furnished”
“Distance to campus”
“Student accommodation only”
“Group lets available”
This ensures your property reaches exactly the kind of student tenants you’re looking for — not general renters or families.
Agencies that use Rightmove also get access to detailed analytics about property performance, pricing trends, and local rental demand. This allows us to price your property correctly, adjust listings based on real data, and make decisions that help you stay competitive.
At Student Housing, we understand how important effective marketing is for student landlords. That’s why every property we manage is listed on Rightmove, with optimised listings tailored to what students want to see:
✅ Professional, high-quality photos
✅ Detailed descriptions that highlight what’s included (bills, Wi-Fi, location perks)
✅ Accurate floor plans and availability dates
✅ Tags for groups, ensuite bathrooms, garden space, parking, and more
We’re not just a generic letting agent — we’re a student-only letting agency, run by former university students who genuinely understand what works in this market. And because we include bills in the rent, offer guarantor support, and manage viewings with real people (not bots), our listings convert to tenancies faster.

Some budget agents or new entrants in the student lettings market avoid Rightmove due to the cost. While they might promise you savings in management fees, it often results in longer voids, poorer tenants, and more headaches.
If your agent is relying only on Facebook ads, their own website, or small portals like OnTheMarket or OpenRent, your property may be invisible to over 80% of the tenant market.
By choosing a letting agency like Student Housing — who lists every property on Rightmove as standard — you’re giving your investment the best chance of consistent, reliable income.
Your student property is a valuable asset. Whether you own one house or a portfolio of student HMOs, the number one way to keep them profitable is to reduce void periods and find reliable student tenants early.
The only way to consistently achieve that in 2025 is by working with a letting agent who:
✔ Understands the student market
✔ Knows how to attract and convert the right type of tenants
✔ And most importantly, lists every student property on Rightmove
At Student Housing, that’s exactly what we do.
