Mighty Student Living: student accommodation management in Lancaster

Mighty Student Living presents itself as Lancaster's largest and fastest-growing student accommodation managing agent. The company advertises properties on behalf of local landlords and claims to manage over 350 homes in the city. The entire portfolio is managed by an in-house team that handles rent collection, repairs and supporting tenants throughout their stay.

Its main audience is students at Lancaster University and the University of Cumbria, although it also offers professional lets on a room-by-room basis. The company states it is a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and claims to be the only RICS-accredited student accommodation provider in Lancaster.

Types of housing and availability

The catalogue covers shared houses with 1 to 12 bedrooms, flats and private studios. Some properties have en-suite bathrooms. The company indicates that most of its rentals include bills and that it has availability throughout the year, although it warns that homes are booked quickly.

Examples published on the site include properties such as a six-bedroom, two-bathroom house on Patterdale Road, a four-bedroom, one-bathroom house on Williamson Road, an eight-bedroom, three-bathroom house on Blades Street, a five-bedroom, two-bathroom house on St. Oswald Street, a three-bedroom, one-bathroom house on Melbourne Road and another three-bedroom, one-bathroom house on Balmoral Road. The weekly prices shown in the catalogue at the time of analysis ranged from £89 to £450.

Bills included and tenant services

Studios and houses with three or more bedrooms include WiFi and essential utilities covered, according to the company's information. Rent with bills included covers basic services, WiFi connection and, under applicable conditions, the TV licence. The company also offers flexible payments: rent can be paid termly to coincide with the arrival of the student grant or loan, and if funding is delayed, tenants simply need to let them know.

Emergency support is available 24 hours a day and the maintenance team handles issues. The company also facilitates remote electronic signing of the tenancy agreement and provides tenants with an AI assistant on its website, as well as an FAQ page.
