Need a UK Guarantor?
What is a UK Guarantor?
When renting a property in the UK, some landlords and letting agents may require a guarantor as part of the tenancy application process.
A guarantor is a person or organisation that agrees to support a tenant's obligations under the tenancy agreement if required. This may include unpaid rent or other responsibilities outlined in the tenancy agreement.
Guarantor requirements are particularly common for:
• International students
• Applicants with overseas income
• New UK residents
• Recent graduates starting their first job
• Tenants with limited UK credit history
What If I Do Not Have a UK Guarantor?
Not having a UK guarantor does not always mean you cannot rent a property.
Some landlords may accept alternative arrangements, while others may allow tenants to use a professional third-party guarantor service.
Third-party guarantor providers assess each application independently and may offer a guarantor service to eligible applicants.
Who May Benefit From a Guarantor Service?
A guarantor service may be suitable if you:
✓ Are studying in the UK
✓ Have recently moved to the UK
✓ Earn income outside the UK
✓ Have limited UK credit history
✓ Have started a new job in the UK
Each provider has its own eligibility requirements and assessment process.
