Quality Standards Framework
Part of the driving force behind RHUL Studentpad is a desire to ensure students at Royal Holloway have access to high quality accommodation during their studies.
As part of this, we've introduced our Quality Standards Framework which sets out a series of minimum requirements a property needs to meet in order to be advertised through the service.

Licencing Requirement For Larger Properties
If you are renting a house with five bedrooms or more to students your house is legally classed as a large House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) and has to be licensed by the council. This means the landlord has to pay a fee, provide energy safety certificates and have the property inspected by the council. Previously, this was only the case with five bedroom houses that had more than two floors, but it has now been extended to all shared properties with over five bedrooms (except for family households). The law change also means that some properties above shops will also have to be licensed if they are housing more than five people.
