Frequently asked questions
- Prices in Banksia vary by neighbourhood, room type (studio vs en-suite vs shared apartment), and how early you book. Get in touch and we will send you a shortlist with live pricing within 24 hours.
- For a September move-in, most students book their Banksia accommodation between May and August. Booking earlier gives you the widest choice on room type, floor, and price. For January or summer intakes, book two to three months ahead.
- Your contract is signed directly with the accommodation provider, not with MoJO Housing, and we list only recognised student accommodation operators. Listing details for our 0 Banksia properties come from the operator's own site and we re-check them regularly, but always confirm the price and the terms in writing with the provider before you pay. Ask the operator specifically whether your contract is a tenancy or a licence, because statutory deposit protection applies to tenancies and most purpose-built student accommodation is let on a licence.
- Purpose-built student accommodation in Banksia commonly includes electricity, water, heating, WiFi, and contents insurance in the weekly rate, but the package is set by each operator and is not the same everywhere. Ask the operator exactly what the rent covers, and what is charged on top, before you pay anything.
- Some Banksia student accommodation operators may ask for an Australian contact, guarantor-style support, upfront rent, or proof that you can meet the rent instalments. The exact rule is set by the provider, so ask before you pay anything.
