Putting tenants' first is a clear winning strategy from Sugarhouse Properties and adding their wellness app only justifies their popularity amongst students.
Sugarhouse Properties have offering their tenants health and wellbeing support with the help of a new app.
Moving into your first house share or rented flat can be a stressful time.
You're not only trying to navigate Leeds' bus system and cook more than a Pot Noodle for dinner, but balancing working, living, studying and socialising into those short 24 hours of the day is hard.
Of course, there are limitless factors that can affect wellbeing, but regardless of whether you are struggling short-term or have a long-term mental health condition, the student letting agency, Sugarhouse Properties want to make the transition as easy as possible and support your wellbeing along the way.
Focusing on their tenant wellness, Sugarhouse have just launched a new app that is devised to offer physical and mental health support.
Other exciting features include tips on integrating with the local community and a foolproof first-timers guide to the city.
Director of Sugarhouse Properties, Richard Napier, is extremely excited about the new development.
“Young people are, quite rightly, much more discerning these days and expect higher standards of accommodation and extra support and services in their homes.
Not only do we offer properties that have all the mod cons, and are clean and comfortable, but we also offer lifestyle and wellbeing support to tenants through the Sugar Hive App, and try and include all bills in the rental price so there are no hidden costs or headaches".
Sugarhouse properties recently partnered with Headingley-based bars Manahatta and Box to offer freshers a free drink to welcome them to the city.
Organising social events for Leeds newbies so students instantly feel at home is all part of their letting experience and Sugarhouse hope that this allows students and graduates to learn about their newfound surroundings and realise Leeds' potential.

“Leeds is such a vibrant city with so much to offer students and young professionals alike.
We want all of our tenants to love Leeds as much as we do, so we’re doing everything we can to connect them with great landlords who care, as well as helping them find their feet and learn all of the great things the city, and surrounding areas, have to offer".
After closing for the entire second day, The Warehouse stage at Leeds Festival has once again been forced to evacuate.
One of the most anticipated dance acts of the day has been cancelled due to health and safety concerns just moments before the set.
Sheffield DJ Silva Bumpa was due to take to The Warehouse stage today at 1:30pm, but the set was cancelled due to overcrowding.
It's not the first time this has happened at Leeds Festival 2026, as yesterday Omar+'s set was cancelled due to the same issue and the stage was subsequently closed for the rest of the day.
The Warehouse stage is completely new for this year, and supposedly is designed specifically for dance music...which is quite ironic.
Announcing the news to Instagram, Silva Bumpa said: "So so sorry Leeds Fest but due to over crowding my set was cancelled last min I was just behind the stage and got told right before such a massive shame."
Prospa, another prominent DJ who's set was cancelled at Reading on Friday afternoon, spoke up on the situation: "We are disappointed in The Warehouse stage closure at Reading Festival. We were told it wasn't possible to play whilst on the way. This was due to too many people outside the stage.
"We have seen this happen before at larger festivals in the UK. It's time to double the capacity of tents or put dance music on the main stage."
It comes after another dance stage, LS23, was closed mid-set last night due to a health and safety hazard when all the lights suddenly switched off and ravers were forced to evacuate.
If yesterday is anything to go by, we wouldn't be surprised if The Warehouse was closed for the rest of the day which means anticipated sets from Rossi and Mall Grab will also be cancelled.

For the second day in a row, a huge set has been cancelled due to overcrowding at Reading and Leeds Festival.
Day two of the festival and there's some pretty disappointed ravers hanging their head as one of the biggest dance music sets of the day is cancelled.
Omar+, a rising British electronic DJ and producer, was due to play on the brand-new Warehouse stage at Reading yesterday and Leeds today.
Yesterday's set was cancelled last minute due to overcrowding, and low and behold the same has happened here in Leeds.
Announcing the sad news to his story, Omar+ said "Actually lost for words. My Leeds set has been cancelled due to overcrowding."
He then went on to show a screenshot of a text message, reading: "I've never seen something like this in my entire life where two shows back to back are cancelled due to overcrowding."
