Landlords were lovely and understanding people who would aid us in any way they could in relation to the flat. Can't recommend UAP enough for students to move into a first time property

Paul and Margaret were fantastic landlords. They were always kind, approachable, and very understanding. Any minor issues were dealt with quickly and without fuss. Couldn’t have asked for better landlords, highly recommended!

Just finished a tenancy with them after 3 years and has been the best experience with a letting agency in Belfast. Property was given to us in great condition and communal areas like stairways and hallways were always maintained either by …

For the past 2 years I have rented a property from Maragret and Paul (UAP) and I can safely say they are the absolute best. When it came to any issues with the property, it was dealt with immediately with a hands on approach and with the utmost care and attention. I'd absolutely recommend them to any student who is looking for a renting agency that they can trust.

Genuinely the best student estate agents/landlords in Belfast. Paul and Margaret are patient, honest, reliable, and considerate people. Any time we needed a hand, it was given. Staying with them was the only time, during my university days in Belfast, that I genuinely felt I had a home. Please consider using University Area Properties if you need somewhere to stay.

Can't praise them enough. They respect their student tennants which is a rare thing to find in Belfast. That is to say they email or text in advance if they need to check something in the property or have arranged a viewing. They are friendly people who we are never afraid to approach about any issue. Would wholeheartedly recommend University Area Properties as letting agents/ landlords to students who want to live in nice, well run properties.

100% the best letting agency in Belfast (and even further) I couldn’t fault Paul or Margaret, they are so lovely and can’t do enough for you! Not one problem the whole year, unlike 95% of the letting agency’s/landlords in Belfast who don’t care about the tenants just the ££! My only regret is that they aren’t my letting agency this year! Thanks so much Paul and Margaret for everything :)

The flat was in good quality and they were really helpful with any inquiries or problems that we had during our year long tenancy. I would definitely recommend this agency, I know that I would have zero hesitation to rent one of their properties again in the student area next year! Having dealt with nightmare estate agencies in the past, Paul and Margaret were a joy to have as estate agents last year!

Both Paul and Margaret were both fantastic when were in one of the Stranmillis properties. Easy to get in contact with, flexible when needed and always happy to help with any issues in the house. Couldn't recommend anyone better!

I have dealt with many letting agencies in the past, but this one is one of the best ones when it comes to taking care of their tenants.There is a reason why you won't see any negative reviews on this letting agency. Paul and Margaret are one of the most genuine and lovely people, who are always ready to help whatever issue you may be having with your accommodation. They are very responsive and won't take a week to fix things up. Definitely recommend, especially if you're a student. You will be well taken care of.

I rented with UAP, Paul and Margaret, last year as part of a flat share and have recently just signed for another year in a 1 bedroom apartment. I've had nothing but a positive experience during my rentals so far. They are both very helpful and have been accommodating for all living circumstances. Flats are kept in good condition with cleaning services and painting done before the start of tenancy's, where necessary. Always at the other end of an email or phone call, willing to support their tenants in whatever way they can!

Paul and Margaret were lovely to talk to and where always at hand when any issues arose. They treated us like adults and not students and were fast at returning our deposit at the end of our tenancy. I would rent again from them!

Paul and Margaret are extremely accommodating and helpful. I rented a property from them for 2 years and any issues that came up were dealt with immediately! The property and the communal areas were always well maintained and cleaned. Highly recommend this letting agency!

I rented with UAP, Paul and Margaret, for a year and it was an excellent choice. I contacted them from Germany and was able to rent an apartment without any problems. When I arrived in Belfast, they handed me the keys and introduced me to my apartment, answering all my questions. They are extremely friendly and professional letting agents who do everything to make you feel comfortable. I recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a great renting experience in Belfast.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I couldn't ask for better people to deal with since living in Belfast. Having had a negative experience with another letting agency, working with Paul and Margaret has been an absolute dream! Nothing is ever too much of a problem and they ensure that you feel safe and at home in all of their properties. Thank you so much Paul and Margaret for everything you do for us!

Coming from a student's perspective, they are the best landlords in Belfast. I have had a few run-ins with difficult landlords in the past and heard stories from friends where they have been bullied by landlords and treated terribly. But this is not the case; Paul and Margret are really genuine, lovely people. They work very hard to ensure all their tenants are happy and comfortable in their homes, any issues we had were resolved extremely quickly. For example, when the fridge stopped working we had one before the day was over and the old one was removed. We requested a new mattress and it was there the next day, with old one taken also, this removed any hassle for us. When we did not know how to use the boiler, due to it being a different model than we had before, Margret came round after the work day was finished and helped us with it. Any issue, no matter how minor, was very promptly sorted out and it was a pleasure to have them as landlords. I cannot speak for every student's experience but as long as you treat them with respect, you get respect back, which is incredibly refreshing given how some landlords feel they can act. I will be returning to university next year, after taking a year out, and intend to go back to Paul and Margret at University Area Properties, as the property manager/estate agent is very integral to how comfortable you will be in a property.

Paul and Margaret are first class estate agents. We could not have asked for a better experience this year. All of their properties are finished to the highest standard and any issue is fixed immediately with no hesitation. They are never difficult to get in contact with and any issues are generally fixed the next working day. Nothing is an inconvenience and they really care about the safety and well being of all their tenants. They treat student tenants with respect which is a rare thing to experience from a student estate agent in Belfast! As the other reviews reflect, they really are just lovely people. We will not be able to let with them again this year but hope to again in the near future as it has been such a hugely positive experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to rent in Belfast.
