What is a guarantor and do I need one?
A guarantor is someone who agrees to fulfill the financial obligations of the tenancy agreement in the event that the tenant defaults. The guarantor is liable for any rent or property damage which the tenant has failed to cover. Typically the guarantor will be your parent, a guardian or a family friend who is financially responsible, and who is willing to co-sign the tenancy agreement with you.
Many properties require you to provide a guarantor, particularly if you are unable to show sufficient funds to support your rental payments. Some properties also require a guarantor if you choose to pay in installments or to make monthly payments.
Some properties require your guarantor to be based in the UK. However, there are some companies you can pay to be a guarantor if you have have no friends/family in the UK.
