FAQ
Simply becoming a guarantor will generally not impact your credit reports and credit scores.
Tips for finding a guarantor Start by considering close connections—like family members or good friends—who understand your character and financial reliability, and would be most willing to help. Make sure your potential guarantor knows what the obligations entail, including the potential financial responsibilities.
As with a co-signer, the risks lie primarily with the guarantor. If you're a guarantor, you might have to shoulder a financial burden on behalf of the borrower, which can be a challenge even for someone with high credit scores. Still, you'll have the satisfaction of enabling a loved one's access to important credit.
Typically, a Guarantor Agreement is appended to the end of a lease agreement as an addendum. If, for whatever reason, you need to add a guarantor to a lease that has already been signed, be sure to have all tenants sign the agreement as well as the guarantor.
A guarantor's form should include a space to fill in the home address, work address, phone number, and email address. The contact details are what will be used to contact the guarantor in the future if the principal fails to meet agreement terms. This is a very important feature of the guarantor's form.
Typically, rent guarantors are parents, relatives or close friends of the tenant. To qualify as a guarantor, you will need to provide the landlord with proof of income (such as paystubs), bank statements, and your Social Security number for a credit and background check.
Since a guarantor is not considered a tenant, they are unable to live in the rental property during the lease term. On the other hand, a co-signer is considered an additional tenant that's allowed to occupy the unit with the original tenant.
How to Add a Guarantor to a Lease Talk With Tenant – Landlords should start by letting the tenant know that a guarantor is needed. Perform Background Check – After the tenant finds someone to co-sign, the landlord should screen the guarantor and conduct a credit check to verify their financial reliability.
Format of a Guarantor Letter Address the letter to the company requiring the guarantee (not to an individual). Introduce yourself and state your relationship to the person you're guaranteeing. State what you will guarantee in your own words (like co-signing a lease).
