Hello everyone, My 4 bed Victorian terrace in Leicester, a big university city, has been rented to students for 7 years through an agency.

Last year was a struggle to rent and there have been no viewings for the next academic year starting in September.

How can I tell if my agent is slacking or if there are other influences in play?

There are student flats being built nearer to the universities but they’re expensive and have no private outside space.

I discussed this with my own ex-student kids who feel that most students prefer a small house share than living in a student block.

Should I try a different agent?

Any input or ideas would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks,

Alison
