Viewing Checklist for Hillside Avenue

• Walk the route from Hillside Avenue to your campus at the time you'd normally travel
• Check mobile signal strength in every room - older buildings can have weak spots
• Test all taps, showers, and the boiler - ask when it was last serviced
• Look for signs of damp, especially in ground floor and basement rooms
• Check which way bedrooms face - north-facing rooms are cooler but darker
• Ask about bin collection days and where bins are stored
• Confirm broadband speeds if you game or stream regularly
• Check parking arrangements if anyone in your group has a car

Common Mistakes When Renting on Hillside Avenue

• Not viewing the property in person before signing - photos can be misleading
• Ignoring bills costs when comparing rent - all-inclusive simplifies budgeting
• Assuming all houses on the same road are equal quality - variation exists between landlords
• Not checking the heating type and expected winter costs
• Forgetting to measure rooms if you're bringing large furniture
• Rushing to sign without checking the full inventory condition
