OUR STORY...
We are a student accommodation search engine with reviews on the houses and letting agents across the U.K. We are based in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, and want to make the pain of searching for a house a LOT easier. We are all former students and have walked into many letting agents to try and get our first houses after halls. Some of us didn't even go into halls and went straight into a private house with people we didn't even know!
By doing that and then seeing how time-consuming it is to find your first house, let alone the amount of stress and worry it can cause, we wanted to create a place where students can look for accommodation easily and brush up on some knowledge beforehand. We like reviews because it helps the other students make a good choice and endorses the good letting agents and accommodation! We should all help each other out, we all want the same thing, which is a nice house that we can call home for a year or more!
Our blogs were started because as we were looking, we realised that we had no idea what we were signing or what we were paying for. It only dawned on us afterward, then we started to ask the questions, but by that time it was too late. We were already in the contract. That's exactly why we have written blogs to help you understand how to find good, honest agents out there who will look after you and make your stay at University the BEST.

WHO ARE WE...
I'm Sam and I believe that Students should be given the freedom to search and have options when it comes to student housing or accommodation! Searching can be a massive time stealer and longer than it needs to be. After my experience of searching through letting agents websites, viewing houses and seeing the standard of the houses. I thought there must be a way to make it easier! That is why I started Student-It. I graduated from Lincoln University with the experience I had and wanted to change it and to help students find the perfect place for them, whether that's on a budget or living in luxury, we have something for everyone throughout the UK.
You can usually find me on a hockey pitch or golf course somewhere around Lincolnshire.
