Students enticed by “grand” scheme

The day after many students in England discover exactly what the future holds for them in terms of university education, a housing group in the South West are enticing students to take up tenancies in one of their modern accommodation blocks that have property insurance for landlords, by offering them a £1,000 cash back bonus.

As the A Level results were announced in England and Wales yesterday, students will be determining just where they can study for their degree. Those that select the top notch South West university in Exeter may have the chance to take up Spectrum Housing Groups rather special offer. The scheme will apply to any student who signs up for a year’s lease on one of Spectrums Point Exe apartments. The apartments are close to Exeter’s seat of learning and offer shared or even en suite accommodation, all the tenancies are covered by buy to let property insurance and Spectrum are confident the offer will see all the flats quickly snapped up.

Private accommodation in Exeter is in huge demand and Spectrum believes their custom built student accommodation will benefit inhabitants of the city as well as the incomers spending a few years at the university.

Jitindar Takhar, a Director of the Spectrum Group, explained thus “The recent announcement that a third of universities have received approval to charge the full £9,000 for every course, students more than ever, are thinking about whether or not they can afford to go to university. We’re a major provider of student housing in Exeter and we feel that it’s important to support students if we can and to thank them for supporting us by staying at our scheme. We’re piloting the initiative at Point Exe which offers en-suite and shared accommodation close to the University of Exeter. The cash-back scheme will be available to students signing up for a year to stay there – if well received we’ll look to roll it out to other schemes in the area.”
