What is a guarantor? Do I need one?
If you’re paying ahead for the full year, you don’t need a UK guarantor.

Your guarantor must agree to pay the rent should you default on your payment. Providing a guarantor is common practice in the UK and provides them with the security and knowledge that the rent will be paid in full and on time.
If you cannot provide a qualified UK guarantor, you can contact Housing Hand to provide you with the Guarantor Service. Housing Hand specialises in dealing with International Students who cannot provide a Guarantor in the UK. To find out more, visit Housing Hand
