Guarantors (if required) are typically expected to earn around 3 times the annual rent
A guarantor may be required depending on individual circumstances, including affordability or adverse credit history.
Where a guarantor is required and none is available, applicants may explore third-party guarantor services (e.g. RentGuarantor), subject to their own approval criteria.
