Bills & legal
Some of the bills you may have to take care of include:
TV License
This can be paid either annually or in monthly instalments. If you are renting a property on a group tenancy then you will be liable for only one license, however if sharers with individual agreements, you will need a license for each occupier that owns and uses a TV. If you're renting a room in a private hall, you need to check if you need a TV license for a TV in your living area or bedroom. You're also required to purchase a TV license if you watch live streaming via your PC or laptop.
Utility Bills
These are payable in a number of ways and it is advisable to check with your landlord/letting agent what exactly they require from you (many will ask for proof of payments before returning your deposit).
Internet/Digital TV
Optional. Internet can be highly useful when it comes to coursework and revision, and more importantly, checking your Facebook!
Contents Insurance
Definitely something to consider and well worth the money if your property will hold lots of expensive valuables.
Council Tax
Whilst full–time students are exempt from this, part–time students are not. If you are planning on living with part–time students or someone that is not a student at all, you will need to take council tax into consideration.
Food
Food can be expensive. Cut down the costs by eating together – it's a great social activity and it will save you money
A cleaner
Optional, but worth thinking about if you're not so keen on house work!
