Background

[edit]

StuRents was founded in 2008 and incorporated in 2009 by undergraduates studying at Durham University. The site currently lists 200,000 student bedspaces. In 2008, the company won the 2008 Digital Awards 'Best B2C'[1] and in 2009, StuRents.com was awarded the Blueprint Business Prize[2][3]

StuRents.com was recently cited alongside Rightmove as a core accommodation website dedicated to helping students find the right accommodation for university.[4]
