DU: New app to find accommodation

With the admission season in full swing and aspiring students looking for reliable accommodation, a first of its kind students-only accommodation online platform, called Studentacco, has been launched to help provide consolidated and verified information about available accommodation facilities across Delhi-NCR.

Aiming to bring all paying guests and rental flat accommodations under one roof, the platform provides students with a seamless experience to browse, choose and book their own preferred accommodation.

Studentacco is currently working to create branded, ready to move-in, fully furnished living spaces. “We have more than 250 beds operational with plan to make available 500 beds for the upcoming academic session in the universities. We have even tied up with good accommodation providers in both South and North Campus areas to facilitate the students seeking accommodation. Alon-gside, Studentacco has its own accommodations that we provide. We enable the students to visit the accommodation, explain the facilities and amenities, including the pricing. If the student is fine with the offering, we take care of the paperwork and help with the move-in process to ensure a smooth and comfortable transition,” said Studentacco founder Viren Jain.

However, the website also gives discount on the first month’s rent along with other offers that it keeps on introducing from time to time. Focusing on needs of the student community, the tech platform replaces the need for broker involvement with technology supported property management and information system, thus enabling students make an informed decision. “The website also enables the students to compare their accommodations on the basis of amenities and cost factors. The listings on the website are 100 per cent verified by the in-house team of Studentacco for accuracy and authenticity, including real time pictures of the property. To offer further convenience to the students, the platform also has a support helpline to cater to the students,” Mr Jain added.
