What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Students and shared households form the core clientele, and their accounts of Housemate Hunter follow a consistent pattern. Jack is the member of staff named most often, praised for being approachable, patient and quick to respond to messages and queries throughout the letting process. Several reviewers describe viewings arranged around busy schedules, including appointments offered at short notice and outside standard working hours, which proved particularly useful for groups coordinating their timetables.

The searches themselves are repeatedly described as well organised, with preferences taken into account and a varied selection of houses presented so that tenants could compare options before deciding. Clear explanations of the paperwork, including holding deposits and contract signing, come up often, alongside the impression that realistic expectations were set from the outset. Speed is another recurring theme, with one tenant securing a property a week after first enquiring. The homes themselves are described as pleasant to live in and properly looked after. For groups of university students seeking shared accommodation, the smooth handling of viewings and administration is what stands out.

I had a really great experience using Housemate Hunter. From start to finish, the whole renting process was quick, easy, and completely stress-free. Jack was especially helpful. He was super responsive and quick to answer any questions I had, which made everything run smoothly and gave me real peace of mind. Communication was clear, the process was well organised, and it honestly couldn’t have been simpler. I’d highly recommend Housemate Hunter to anyone looking for a straightforward and reliable renting experience.

Our experience with Jack was amazing! He was super helpful throughout the process, offering solutions to any problems and answering all the questions we had. He brought such a positive and fun attitude to the experience, it was such a shame the property we liked was reserved before we could, otherwise we would have loved to have booked with him!

Truly appreciative of Jack, he went above and beyond to support 4 first year university students to find a good house for the next year. He took all of our preferences into consideration and found 4 more houses for us to view for the same day. This helped us as a group to get a good look at a variety of places that suits our individual interests. Throughout the whole process, Jack was very responsive to all of our questions and helping us with each step to book the house. We are grateful to have had an excellent and smooth experience when looking to rent a student house for the first time.

The bedrooms are comfortable and peaceful, and the master suite feels like a private getaway. Outside, the yard is beautifully maintained, offering a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening gatherings. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, with everything you need close by—schools, shops, parks, and great dining options.

This property is simply exceptional. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by bright, open spaces and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed, from the modern finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms to the spacious living areas perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
