Dodgy landlords that rent to students: Coy and Break plc - The boys to talk to if you don't mind never actually getting a place to let. They will show you some nice places, but don't actually believe in renting them out. They make their money in European Objective One Subsidies for building, and not letting, properties. ABR Stiff flats - these guys specialize in first year students who haven't yet had the chance to hear of their dodgy practices from other students. We would list their address if we could keep up with it, but to avoid litigation they move into a new part of town at least once every six weeks. We suggest students who are overly optimistic about life and the honesty of their fellow man spend one term in one of their flats. It will help you become a cynic for life. Ping Pong Ding Dong Realty - Specialize in selling and letting property to rich and poor foreign students unaware of UK housing standards, fair trade and usury laws. Especially good for those who feel guilty about their wealth and want to join the Proletariat. Just The Flat Mate - Boasts being in business 50 years without ever loosing a lawsuit to students. Owned by the brother of local councilman I.P.Lloyds. Can't Contract Charlie's - an honest guy, but he doesn't do contracts. The only real problem with this is, you may not be legally staying in the flat he lets to you, and the owners may decide to kick you out when they find out you're staying there. He's on the main street, but when trying to find his proper address through the local authorities, they couldn't find his business registration. "I just don't like paperwork" gripes Charlie. Charlie is also the head and only member of the local branch of The UK Independence Party. None of the landlords in town will ever be endorsed by the University. They are listed here purely for information purposes. Links to landlords webpages available soon. If you are a dodgy landlord, write to us and we'll list you here too. |
