I’m an international traveler, expat, or foreign student. Can I still be approved?
Yes, prospective renters with no US credit score are eligible for lease coverage. If you are an international student, you'll most likely need a Responsible Party to apply.

This individual does not need to be in the US, and their income and liquid assets do not need to be in US dollars.
The person I am guaranteeing for does not have credit. Do you still need to screen them?

No, there is one lease for each home. All applicants will sign the same lease and have joint and several liability. they treat student leases the same as they do any lease.
Am I liable as a guarantor after my son or daughter leaves but their roommates stay behind?
Yes! The personal guaranty remains in effect until ALL residents vacate and the apartment is surrendered empty and free of everyone. This means that you could be held financially liable for persons that you did not intend to personally guaranty when you signed the guarantor agreement.
What documents will you need from me?
