Offering Sky or Virgin TV

Whilst providing Sky or Virgin TV may not be a major deciding factor for some tenants, it does have many advantages, with some packages offering hundreds of channels to choose from ranging from movies, sports, documentaries to music giving everyone in the house something to enjoy.

These providers also offer multiroom this will allow tenants to watch Sky or Virgin TV in there room. This way everyone is happy and gets to watch what they want. If there’s a football fan in the house, but you are watching Corrie, they don't have to miss out.

Packages normally start from around £17 a month, better packages from around £30 and adding multiroom to your package normally costs around £5-10 per month per room. If Sky or Virgin is not for you, remember you can always pick up a free-view box for as little as £15 and watch over 40 channels with no subscription to pay.

So if you offer Sky or Virgin TV make sure you mention it in your advert as this could help attract more interest.

If you're thinking of getting Sky or Virgin TV then factor these costs into tenants rent. Check out the current offers:
