I think it's very advantageous for you, you can buy a cheap Antminer S3 or S5. If there is no budget to buy new, buy a second is good option too. Happy mining friend.

Bitcoin FTW!
With free electricity, most of the time there will be a limit to how much is available to you. Some places will not allow much usage, some more- I would recommend buying a cheap miner and trying to mine with that- I know a few people in my area trying to sell Antminer S1's for free as they're practically worthless. Those can be nice to start with as they can be undervolted nicely and won't use too much power then.

Ok so i have been offered the prospect of free electricity and am thinking about buying some mining hardware, what is currently the best hardware and what else should i be thinking about?

thanks

 If you look down below your topic in the mining speculation thread you will see many topics very similar to yours.  Read those first and then ask your questions.  So may people come in here without giving ANY information other than "I have free electricity" and "I'm thinking about..." which is far too vague.  Nobody can properly advise you until we know if your parents are paying for the "free" electricity or it's your landlord's problem; which will eventually become yours.  It might also be some other problem like the one that caused ChineseSaviour to sell the farm.

 Household voltage? ie 120 or 240
 Climate? tropical/arid/subarctic/icecap
 Space? separate room or will they live with you
 Noise tolerance? your own/your neighbours - how close are they?
 Money? What's your budget?
