  • A guarantor is someone who guarantees that a tenant will pay the rent etc to a landlord. A guarantor is used where the tenant is not credit worthy so obviously the guarantor should be. The risk to the guarantor is that should the tenant default he will have to pay the rent/ service charge etc to the landlord.
