Will you be providing a UK guarantor?

A guarantor is someone who agrees to pay the rent on your behalf if for whatever reason you were unable to pay. This is usually a parent or guardian. To qualify as a suitable guarantor, the person must be a UK resident and be in full time employment. Proof of UK residency and photo I.D will be required. If you are unable to provide a UK based Guarantor, you will automatically be required to pay your rent in advance. For more details please contact us.

Confirm your identity

Examples of Government issued I.D are Passport, Driver's License or Biometric residence permit (BRP).

Declaration

I have completed the reservation form and I am ready to pay the deposit.


I understand that this will be held as a damage deposit and that the flat/room will be reserved for me for a maximum of 7 days from the date of this booking form, and will only become guaranteed upon signing the appropriate tenancy agreement within this timescale.


I understand that if, for any reason, I do not proceed with the proposed tenancy or sign the required documents in the time frame required, £100 of the damage deposit will be retained by Abode Lettings Leicester Ltd and is non-refundable. If I proceed to signing an appropriate tenancy agreement, then the full amount will be allocated as a damage deposit as itemised in my tenancy agreement.
