What is a rental guarantee ?

Before moving into a new property, you as a tenant must pay a rent security deposit into a blocked and inaccessible account until the lease is terminated. Very often tenants wish to use this sum for another purpose, whether for furniture or rent. The rent guarantee is an alternative to bank deposits. For this purpose, the tenant pays an annual premium to a surety company that guarantees the surety to the owner. In the event of damage, the guarantee can cover the damage up to the amount of the deposit.
