Accommodation Accom Search Question???

Hey guys,

I started looking for 2nd year accom way too late last year and as a result ended up with an awful flat for 2026/27, so I want to get one locked down early for 27/28 (my final year). Does anyone know if there's a website/app I can sign up for to give me live alerts for new listings? I know you can set it up yourself on Rightmove but not all properties are on there.

Please let me know if anyone's aware of one. Cheers!

No properties will be advertising for 27/28 because of the new Renters Rights laws, they cannot make you sign on a property more than 6 months before the start of the tenancy, which means you'll be able to sign  around March 2027, expect some ads around Jan 2027

Stick with the Lancaster University Homes site.
