Supporting Students’ Unions to Improve Renting

At Marks Out Of Tenancy (MOOT), we’re dedicated to improving the private rental experience for students. We understand that finding a safe, fair, and affordable place to live is a huge part of student life, and we’re here to help. By partnering with Students’ Unions, we provide essential tools and support to empower students, Advice Centres, and universities in tackling rental issues head-on.

 

How MOOT Benefits Students

MOOT is a free platform where students can review their landlords, letting agents, and rental properties, helping future tenants make informed decisions.

  • Transparency: Read and leave reviews about landlords, letting agents, and properties.

  • Protection: We work with local authorities to flag unlicensed rental properties that have been reviewed.

  • Empowerment: Our workshops and online resources help students understand their rights and responsibilities as renters.

  • Community: Share experiences and warn others about poor practices, while recognising good landlords.

 

How MOOT Supports Students’ Unions

We’ve successfully worked with Students’ Unions to improve the student rental experience, and we’re excited to do the same with you. Partnering with MOOT gives your SU access to:

  • Data & Insights – We highlight rental trends, problematic landlords, and issues students face in your area.

  • Promotion of SU Rental Schemes – If your SU runs a housing scheme, we help promote it by showcasing landlord and letting agent rankings.

  • Advice & Advocacy – We equip your Advice Centre with additional resources to support students with renting issues.

  • No contracts to sign – There's no clunky contracts to sign, our website is free and open for all to use.

  • Engagement Tools – Digital assets, leaflets, and social media content to drive student involvement.

  • Workshops & Training – Our trained staff can run online and offline workshops to help students navigate the rental market with confidence.

 

How MOOT Supports Universities

Universities have a vested interest in student welfare, and poor housing conditions can negatively impact academic performance and well-being. By working with MOOT, universities can:

  • Enhance Student Support – Offer students a trusted resource to check rental property reviews.

  • Improve Housing Standards – Use MOOT data to identify patterns of bad practice and work with local authorities to take action.

  • Strengthen Student Advice Services – Provide additional materials and workshops tailored to student renters.

  • Boost Community Engagement – Collaborate with SUs and local councils to foster a fairer rental market.

 

Get Involved

Partnering with MOOT is free, easy, and effective. Whether you’re a Students’ Union, an Advice Centre, or a university, we can provide the tools you need to support students in making better renting decisions.
