Merlin considers education to be very important. He is aware that it can be very difficult for students
these days, since the abolition of grants, the introduction of tuition fees and the high interest rates on student loans.
Merlin tries to help students by providing them with really good homes during their university days at a much more affordable
price than most. He is a friendly, kind and approachable landlord who is fully conversant with all aspects of letting
houses to students. Merlin is an expert!
Merlin is the only landlord to have been included in the official University
of Sunderland private landlords list virtually every year from 1993 until the University discontinued the list in 2017.
Merlin complies with all of the following basic requirements :-
Accredited Member of the National
Landlords Association. (Merlin was one of the first in the North East.)
City of Sunderland Accredited Landlord.
Provides comprehensive and informative property management documentation to all tenants.
Provides fair and lawful contracts.
Fully complies with all aspects of the
law including but not limited to those those relating to electrical safety, gas safety, fire safety and data protection.
Provides statutory information to tenants at the correct time in matters relating to energy efficiency, gas safety,
'How To Let Information' and deposit protection.
More importantly:
-
It is generally agreed among students who have first lived in other houses then moved to Merlin's, that
Merlin's houses are the best they have stayed in. (By all means have a chat to my existing students and they will
tell you everything you want to know.)
Despite this, Merlin's houses are around the least expensive
to rent!
Things rarely go wrong, but if they do they are fixed very quickly.
One thing is for certain, it is unlikely that anyone works harder than Merlin to get things right.
