We make finding the perfect student home a whole lot simpler.

UniHomes was born in Sheffield to help improve the lives of both students and letting agents. Noticing difficulties in the market, we set out to change the way student lettings work. Beginning with a handful of student properties, the team begin to roll out the service.

After a successful launch, we expanded into Leeds. Forming key relationships with letting agents, the word spread amongst students that UniHomes was the place to find their perfect student accommodation. The UniHomes team grew quickly to keep up with the demand whilst still delivering the same level of great service clients and customers learnt to expect!

With two successful letting seasons under our belt in Sheffield and Leeds, we prepare to expand into a number of cities across the UK, including Newcastle.

We're rated 'Excellent' on Trustpilot by students and letting agents.

After an exciting office move to accommodate our growing team, UniHomes expands to cover 10 university cities, including Bath, Norwich and Southampton.

In December, we announced the acquisition of Split The Bills to operate alongside UniHomes. Split The Bills are experts in the student utility space, offering utility packages to students across the UK since 2011.

There were celebrations all round, as UniHomes work with a record number of letting agents up and down the UK. We also expanded into London, taking our total number of cities to 26.

This year, both the UniHomes and Split The Bills teams were united under one roof, located in central Sheffield. With an incredible team and lots going on behind the scenes, we're excited to see where this year takes us!

We're now in 36 cities with tens of thousands of student homes, welcoming new agents, and growing our UniHomes team.

As well as showcasing amazing student properties - we've partnered with great national brands that students love (like Taco Bell and Missguided) and launched our own brand ambassador programme.

We've already helped thousands of students find their perfect student home for the 2022/23 season and we're not stopping there!
