What are the advantages of renting a furnished flat?

When you rent a furnished flat, you have everything that you need right there in the apartment. This can be really convenient, especially if you are new to the city and don't know where to start looking for furniture. Another advantage of renting a furnished flat is that it is usually cheaper than renting an unfurnished apartment or house. This can be helpful if you are on a tight budget. One advantage of renting a furnished flat is that you can rent it for medium-long term periods. This is ideal if you are in Melbourne for a few months and need a place to stay, as it can be difficult to find long-term rentals in the city. Furnished flats come with all of the amenities that you need, such as furniture, appliances, and linens.

Are bills included in my rent?

Yes, all utilities bills are included with student accommodation of your choice.

How much do I have to pay for a deposit?

This will depend on the type of property you choose. The most anyone can legally charge is 5 weeks rent. Some accommodation in Melbourne halls of residence will not require a deposit at all, while on average the deposit in a shared house in Melbourne will be AU$1841.85.

What is the average rent of student accommodation in Melbourne?

Student accommodation prices in Melbourne will depend on a range of different factors, the most important being location. The accommodation price can range from AU$230.00/week to AU$467.00/week. You can expect to spend AU$400-500/week for a decent room on average. Apart from the location, the rent also depends on the various amenities and facilities provided by the accommodation and the room's configuration. Rent will decrease as you move further away from the City Centre.

What if I don’t like my accommodation after moving in?

At uhomes, we try our best to find student accommodation that meets all your priorities and preferences. If you do not like your accommodation due to unforeseen or unaccepted circumstances, referring back to the provider is recommended, as cancellation policies vary from one provider to another.

What should I look for when booking Melbourne student accommodation?

While searching for student accommodation in Melbourne, you want to look for places that offer all-inclusive bills, as well as fully-furnished accommodation options, accommodation close to your university of choice, and student homes that have the basic amenities you might need, including Wi-Fi, secure parking, and on-site laundry facilities, among others.

What options are there for contract length? Can I book summer accommodation as well for example?

Most contracts last for one academic year. If you would like to stay for a longer or a shorter time, contact us and our booking consultants will be able to give you information about which landlords are currently accepting stays of different lengths. If you’d like to stay in your accommodation over the summer as well, this can usually be arranged as many of the properties we list also accept bookings for summer accommodation.

Why are there so few flats in Melbourne?

There are a number of reasons why there are so few flats in Melbourne. One reason is that demand for housing is high and there aren't enough flats to meet the demand. Another reason is that many people who work in Melbourne don't want to live in the city center, preferring to live in the suburbs instead. Finally, developers often prefer to build houses rather than flats because they can make more money from selling houses.

What are the different available room types?

The available room types in Melbourne student accommodations range from single rooms, double rooms, triple rooms, and en-suite rooms to private flats, apartments, self-contained studios, and penthouses.
