Services
Letting season' starts at the beginning of November and properties move fast, so best get your skates on. We have a property to suit everyone and every budget and if you can't see something online, come in and see us as we may have something up our sleeves. Perfect location for the Students Union and Library buildings but equally as close to the bars and nightlife of Durham city centre.
When received, you will have 48 hours to read and sign the agreement and at this point you will also need to pay your deposit. If the 48-hour deadline passes without all signatures and deposits paid, there is a possibility that the landlord will not accept your application and the property may be remarketed.
We offer two options for student landlords; our bespoke fully managed package and our competitive tenant find only package. Both of our packages will provide you with a solid foundation to enhance your property portfolio. Details of our services are highlighted below. Visiting you at your property and providing a free rental valuation and any other advice, which you may require about letting your property.
Specialising in the management of student homes, Harringtons Student Management consists of highly-trained property management professionals who are committed to excellence in customer service. Our years of experience, education and knowledge in property management give us the ability to manage your investment with the expertise and professionalism you deserve.
Over the past 30 years we have frequently been asked similar questions by our students. Having said that there is no such thing as a silly question, so if your answer is not below, please give us a call and we will be more than happy to help. You can pay monthly, or in any lump sum providing this is in advance.

Unhygienic property with dirty walls, broken glass in corridor, misleading back garden… etc
Flat was initially dirty and there was mould and staff were hesitant to rectify this. When they did it was sending someone to steam the carpet
Toilet was broken from the first day I was there.
Barely stayed at flat and tried to get out of my contract due to all the issues when I did use the property but agents wouldn’t budge and were very rude and greedy for money. I had read reviews on here but I didn’t want to believe it because the staff appeared nice at first but honestly should have believed

My experience with Harrington's has been awful, and I have had lots of experience with them: two tenancies to be precise.
In my first tenancy, the other students were making a mess of the communal bin area and Harrington's said they had nothing to do with it when I emailed them. Also, the flat was dirty when I arrived in it. I even noticed the staff were very cold with me when I had to enter their shop.
But it was only my second tenancy with them where it became clear how they bully their tenants. The flat was EVEN MORE dirty when I arrived (photos attached). As you can see from the photos, the

Having just completed my 2nd year with Harringtons I can't recommend them highly enough. I returned home during the pandemic and couldn't return to Durham to clear my possession from the house I had for my first year, Harringtons stored my items free of charge (other agents charged for this service) which was a big help. Staff were always friendly and helpful when I called them and made sure any repairs were dealt with quickly. Thank you Harringtons.

I've used Harringtons to let and manage my student properties for several years now and have always been very happy. Amanda, Ellie and Andrew are all great, responsive and professional, and not just with me as a landlord but also with tenants, as I've seen when included in many communications over the years. Whenever I visit a property I always ask the tenants if they are happy with the service provided by Harringtons and the feedback is always positive.
