Quantum offers an established property rental department under the management of Maria Lovatt. We have a huge range of properties on our books, from stylish farmhouses to sleek city apartments.

All properties, other than student lets, are available on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement. The minimum term is six months. You will be required to pay a deposit and an agency administration fee at the commencement of your agreement.

If you are interested in taking one of our rental properties it is important you understand you will need to pass our referencing process.

Full Time employed

If you are in regular full time work we will reference you through your employer, previous landlord and with a character reference.

Guarantor reference

If your circumstances mean you are not in full time work we may be able to reference a "guarantor" who will go through the aforementioned references and sigh to agree to cover your rent if you face difficulty paying. It is important that this person understands the responsibility this role will place on them.

Six months in advance

If you are new to the area or have other factors that will complicate your application you may be able to take a property by paying the full six-month minimum term in advance.

Students

We are pleased to offer a selection of student rental properties. They have been carefully selected to ensure they are ideally located for either the University of York or St Johns.

The properties we offer will be available to view during January, February and March in preparation for the next academic year. It is very important that you have arranged your group of sharers and are sure of the number of bedrooms you need. You will be required to commit to your choice straight away in order to ensure no further viewing take place.
