When a Guarantor would be required:
References are taken on behalf of the landlord and include, credit history checks, employer and/or proof of income, affordability and former landlord checks. In some circumstances where a person feels they may not pass the reference for reasons such as low income to rent ration, a guarantor can be used, or the rent may be paid in advance. Always ask us if you are concerned, as there may be alternatives available to you, but it’s easiest if mentioned at the start.
