What are guarantors and why do you need one?

Landlords and letting agents may ask you for a guarantor. This means they need someone to guarantee your rent payments if you cannot pay rent.

So, a guarantor is someone that is responsible for meeting your rent and will pay out if you can't. But, it's hard to find a guarantor. A guarantor often needs to earn £84,000 per annum for every £2,000 of monthly rent, be based in the UK, and even own a UK property. That is why Homeppl Guarantid exists. We help students, employed tenants, internationals, renters on benefits & others secure the rental properties they want.
