LiveOut is run by students for students. We were tired of trekking down the Cowley Road visiting six or so Letting Agents and spending hours picking up housing lists. So, we thought, why not put all these lists onto one website, with lots of photos, Google maps, search functionality and the ability to save favourite properties?
The result is LiveOut. Our aim for LiveOut is to make the student experience of looking for housing as simple and hassle-free as possible. Log on to the website and virtually every single property in every single letting and estate agent in Oxford is at your fingertips – that’s 1100 properties to date. Our database of letting and estate agents includes:
1st Letting, A&A Accommodation, AB Lettings, Anderson Croft, Archer and Bassett, Arlington Estates, Azad Ayub Ltd, Bannits Lettings, Bansal Estates, Beckmann Property Management, Black Katz Camden, Blackkatz Crouch End, Blue Door Lettings, Bluewood Lettings, Breckon & Breckon, Castles, Cathedral Property Management, Central Housing, CENTURY CREST, Chancellors, Charles Lawson, Charter Properties, Chase Apartments, City Properties, College and County, Dhesi Estates, Elliott Estates, Empire Property Management, ENVISAGE LETTINGS, Ethical Letting, Fastrack Lettings, Finders Keepers, Hamptons International, Heritage Estate Agents, Homefinders, Hutton Parker, John D Wood & Co., Lawsons & Daughters, LDG Estate Agents, Lizman's Properties, Lucy Properties, Lyttons, North Oxford Property Services, Northwest Properties, Oxford Lettings and Property Management, Parkview Estates, Pearce Alder, Pettifers, Plum Properties, Premier Letting, Randall Homes, Real Letting, Rentaflat, RMA Properties, Rustminster Estates, Sandhu Estates, Scott Fraser, Smarter Housing, Spa Estates, Student Circle, Student Homes Coventry, Tara and Co, Test London Agent, The Letting People, The Letting Shop (TLS), Top Lettings Ltd, Unac, Victor Stone Limited.
We also have a huge number of properties managed and let by landlords.
We've tried to make the website as comprehensive and easy-to-use as possible. We are constantly adding new features, updating the design and improving the backbone database management. If you have any ideas for improving the website, such as new features, or ideas for any other part of the LiveOut business - such as marketing or expansion - then please contact us; we'd love to hear from you. Over the next few months we're launching in 10 select cities across the UK - if you want to be part of this launch, get in touch; we'd love to hear from you.
Throughout the past year our team has grown much bigger and we now have a full time Chief Technology Officer, as well as Marketing and PR Advisors. As we expand across the UK, we will be enlarging our team even further and if you are interested in working for one of the fastest growing student start-ups in the UK, let us know!
We hope you enjoy using our website.
