Guarantors
Guarantor guar•an•tor : a person who makes or gives a guarantee
Because many students fall below the income requirements to rent, often landlord or
property managers require a guarantor, which is simply a person that makes a guarantee
that they will pay the rent if you do not. Often students turn to parents or guardians to be
their guarantor. It is critical that if you have a guarantor, you always pay your rent on time
and meet your rental obligations. You never want to put your guarantor on the hook for
your rent payments.
