              Booking and Payments<\/strong><\/p>

              • Advance Rental Payment: <\/strong>Where required, paying the advance rental payment secures the room and serves as a commitment to the booking. This amount is credited toward the first rent instalment.<\/p><\/li>

              • Completion Deadline: <\/strong>The Tenancy Agreement must be finalised within seven days of either paying the advance rental payment or accepting the booking terms (if no advance rental payment is required). This timeframe may only be extended by prior mutual agreement.<\/p><\/li>

              • Card Fees: <\/strong>No additional surcharges are applied to payments made via debit or credit card.<\/p><\/li>

              • K<\/strong>ey Collection: <\/strong>Access to the property on the move-in date is contingent upon the completion of all tenancy and guarantor documents and the payment of any rent instalments due by that time.<\/p><\/li>

              • Guarantor:<\/strong> For instalment payments, a guarantor is mandatory. The guarantor must complete their agreement and submit documents within 7 days of the Booking Fee payment (or booking confirmation). Failure to do so requires full rent payment upfront.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

                Room and Tenancy Adjustments<\/strong><\/p>

                • Downgrades: <\/strong>Residents may switch to a lower-priced room until July 31st preceding the start date, provided space is available. Downgrades are not permitted after this deadline.<\/p><\/li>

                • Upgrades and Swaps: <\/strong>Requests to upgrade or move to an equivalent room type are free of charge until the tenancy begins. Post-start date requests are subject to availability and review.<\/p><\/li>

                • Tenancy Length: <\/strong>Contract durations can be modified without penalty until July 31st. After this date, the term cannot be shortened, though extensions may be granted if rooms are available.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>","building_notes":"","booking_procedures":"","price_structure":"week","minimum_short_term_week":null,"building_views":0,"videos":"
