Red-brick terraces and soft water
The Holylands, Botanic and Stranmillis areas near Queen's are dense with red-brick terraces let to students, often with several bedrooms, a shared kitchen and a small back yard. South Belfast around the Lisburn Road and east Belfast around the Newtownards Road have many terraced houses let to professionals and families, while the Cathedral Quarter, Titanic Quarter and city centre have newer flats.
Belfast's water is soft, so limescale is rarely an issue. Condensation and mould are more common, particularly in older terraces with back-return bathrooms, and they're a frequent check-out note.
Deposits in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, deposits for private tenancies must be protected with an approved scheme – TDS Northern Ireland, mydeposits Northern Ireland or Letting Protection Service Northern Ireland – and each offers free dispute resolution. The Private Tenancies Act (Northern Ireland) 2022 has also introduced further changes for tenants and landlords.
If there's a disagreement about cleaning, the scheme looks at the inventory, check-out report and photos, so keep evidence of your clean.
Student and professional move-outs
Queen's and Ulster University students mostly move out in May and June, and the Holylands gets very busy. Book early and book one clean for the whole house. Clear yards and bins – rubbish left out is a common problem in student areas.
Professionals in the city centre and Titanic Quarter move throughout the year, often with notice periods that leave little time. Some companies offer weekend and short-notice cleans.
