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.
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.
However, as a guarantor, your financial liability is identical to that of the borrower or tenant. If they fail to meet their obligations, creditors can pursue you directly for the debt. This can lead to lawsuits, credit damage, and financial loss, all because you agreed to help someone out.
Important: Agreeing to be a guarantor and providing a guarantee involves significant financial risk, which could result in you losing your property (it could be your family home) and/or serious monetary loss.
Depends on the landlord. Some landlords only accept guarantor companies, and some only except specific guarantor companies. Any landlord that is OK with a regular guarantor would also be OK with a company, but not the other way around.
Depending on the terms of the tenancy agreement and guarantee provisions, the guarantor could also be responsible for paying for any damage caused to the property and other costs that the tenancy agreement may make the tenant liable for, such as the landlord's legal fees to recover possession of the property.
If a person lacks a rental history, a landlord may feel more comfortable renting to them if they have a guarantor with solid references and a track record of paying their bills on time.
