Increasing Expenditures with Rising Rents of Student Accommodation

Accommodation is one of the prime most requirements for the student pursuing for higher education in the prime cities in UK. The rents of the properties are rising at an extremely high pace especially in the North region of UK as compared to the South. There is a visible divide in the two sides of the country but still the increase in the rents at both the ends is unimaginable and is increasing burden on the parents who have to pay the price of all expenditures. The increasing costs of clothes, books and kitchen items, are a separate matter else to the rising rents of accommodation across UK.

According to the research conducted regarding the availability of student accommodation in Leeds, the fact that the rents have been rising unexpectedly because of influx of students more than expected is evident. The average rise in the rent of accommodation is 3.1% as compared to the last year prices. All of this increase is to be paid by the students moving into new house shares and halls across the country. The increase in the rents has its origins from the south and has a severe impact on the soaring rents that have increased the overall expenditures of the parents. London is amongst the most expensive places in the country with high prices and increasing rents. Amongst the top most places in maximum rents London stands at the top with £129 per week followed by Egham in Surrey with £115 and Newport £113 per week. Winchester and Middle sex are also in the list with rent over £100 per week each. North is also not much easy for accommodation search as the prices in the region are no less than £69 in the prime locations in the city as Manchester being £74, Leeds £74, Sheffield £69 and Nottingham being £76 show a 6% increase in the average rent in the country for student accommodation.

The increase is not to be paid by the students but it is eventually going to be a burden on the parents who have to pay for the rents and all other expenditures of the students. The efforts to manage the accommodation for the students’ at the most reasonable prices are underway and this has a clear impact on the student’s demand for student accommodation in Leeds in the major academic institutions across UK. The most feasible student accommodation places in the country where student flats for rent are available have been located in Walsall, Stockton, and Wolverhampton with an average weekly rents amounting up to £48, £49 and £52. This eventually makes it clear that the locations in the south have been the major cause of the upsurge of the rents in the country especially Luton with 20% rise,  Chatham with 19% rise and Bournemouth with 16% increase. All this increase is not a burden on the students but has to be paid off by parents resulting in the increase in cost of living and expenditures growing by the time.
