What do you mean by ‘Fair Usage Policy’?
The Fair-Bills-Inclusive Policy applies to tenants whose rent includes utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and broadband. This policy is designed to ensure that utility usage remains reasonable and proportional. It provides tenants with peace of mind while protecting them from the risk of overspending on these services. Under the policy, a fair-usage allowance is set, which is the maximum amount tenants can use for these services without incurring additional charges. While the allowance is generous, it applies collectively to all tenants, meaning everyone is responsible for ensuring no one exceeds the limit. If the total usage exceeds the allowance, additional fees will apply. The allowance is typically calculated for a 12-month period, but if your tenancy is shorter, it will be adjusted accordingly.
What’s included in my loc8me house?
This can vary widely! Most properties are fully furnished, typically providing:
  • Major kitchen appliances
  • Seating
  • Bedroom furniture: bed, desk, desk chair, wardrobe, and drawers
Some properties may also include small appliances like microwaves, toasters, and ironing boards. To confirm what’s included in your Loc8me home, be sure to check with your asset manager!

I have a maintenance issue, what do I do?

Do I need a guarantor?
Each tenant will need a UK based guarantor that is either a UK homeowner or earns 5x the sum of an individual’s rent.
I am a student, do I pay council tax?
If you are a full time student throughout your whole tenancy, you are exempt from paying council tax.
