What’s Included in Student Rent (and What You’ll Still Need to Pay For)

Renting a student home for the first time can feel confusing — especially when it comes to what’s actually included in your rent.
Does “bills included” really mean everything? Do you still need to sort out Wi-Fi or pay council tax?

In this guide, we’ll break down exactly what’s typically covered in student accommodation, what’s not, and how Bright Futures Lettings keeps things simple for students in Bognor Regis and Chichester.

What’s Usually Included in Student Rent

Most modern student homes now include key utilities in your monthly rent. This means you don’t have to worry about setting up multiple accounts or dividing bills between housemates.

At Bright Futures Lettings, all our student properties come with:

Water – both supply and waste water costs covered.
Gas – central heating and hot water included.
Electricity – lighting, appliances, and plug sockets all part of the rent.
Broadband – fast, reliable fibre internet at no extra cost.

Having bills included keeps things predictable and avoids arguments over usage or missed payments. It also means you can budget more easily every month.
