ULodging is a one-stop online marketplace where universities, academic institutions and non-profits engaged in the provision of internships, study abroad and other experiential programs can directly communicate with each other to either post or search for housing/ classroom space for their students/faculty. ULodging will provide the ability to reserve, execute a lease and pay for the housing online at one time.
Anyone can access ULodging and search for housing accommodation. Especially students. The portal will define in which cities housing is available. A description of the accommodation with photographs, availability dates and property features will be provided. When you identify the accommodation that you like, register online and contact the provider. The portal will enable you to register your required accommodation should a search not identify a suitable property.
We do not execute leases and contracts. That is done directly between the parties involved. We are a digital platform that allows for an efficient and effective means for matching institutions that need housing and those that have housing in a safe, secure online environment. A record is kept of the discussions, so you can always go back to see what was described, promised, arranged, etc.
ULodging allows the prospective Lodger to ask pertinent questions directly of the Host. You don’t have to rely upon a formalized checklist, for the site allows for a robust conversation between the two parties so all relevant information and documents, including insurance, visas, etc. can be addressed and exchanged in a secure environment. Lodgers may choose to visit the location for a walk through, engage in a video conference call or take other means to review and assess the site.
