Viewing Checklist for North Street

• Visit at night (Thursday-Saturday) to experience actual noise levels
• Check what's directly below and beside the property (bars, clubs, takeaways)
• Walk the route from North Street 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

Common Mistakes When Renting on North Street

• Not viewing the property in person before signing - photos can be misleading
• Underestimating noise from nightlife, especially Thursday-Saturday nights
• Assuming parking will be available - it's expensive and limited
• 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
