Why choose Garantme ?

The Garantme Guarantee® showcases the seriousness of your application and your solvency to the landlord.

Your obligations under the lease remain the same with or without Garantme. In case of default, the Garantme Guarantee®, financed by the community of tenants, will cover the unpaid rent to the landlord. However, your debt will be transferred to our insurer company. This will lead to legal actions and the start of an eviction process. You will be liable for legal fees and any rent payment due.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why am I asked to provide a guarantor ?

List of cases where a guarantor is necessary

Because landlords want to rent their apartment to secured tenants, they ask a guarantor if the renter:

  • Is a student.
  • Is not a French citizen.
  • Has no revenues in France.
  • Is in a trial period.
  • Has a limited-period contract or unstable revenues.
  • Earns less than 3 times the rent.

You are in one of those situations? 

That's why we are here! You can apply to our lease guarantee, which gives full security to your landlord. It only takes 5 minutes, we take care of the rest.

If your landlord does not know us yet, we will be happy to discuss with him or her.

How to use the Garantme Certificate?

Tips on how to use the Certificate with landlords, agents, and on search websites

I - To agents or landlords via email 📧:

Email is good for landlords and agents to store your information, but you remember that they receive hundreds of emails every day, so don't hesitate to pick up the phone 📞. 

II - To agents or landlords in a printed version during an apartment visit 📄:

The decision of the landlord is often taken during the visit when they meet you. Use this moment as best you can and show the landlord your motivation to get the apartment by bringing your complete file, including the Certificate of Eligibility to the guarantee in a printed version.

III - On housing marketplaces 🖥:

Option 1: Their form offers the possibility to choose a company as a guarantor 😊.

You should use this option, declare "Garantme" as your guarantor, and upload your Garantme Certificate.

Option 2: Their form only offers the possibility to have a physical guarantor 😌.

Most often, online forms are adapted for renters who have a physical guarantor because it is the norm in France. Even some partners don't have an adapted online form...

But there is good news 😇: you can still use it in this case. Below are our tips to adapt your application to their form.

1) They will ask for various information about your guarantor. Here is how to give them:

 

null

 

For any other information that they ask for, you can randomly fill it in. There is no automatic analysis, they always look at information and will expect your Certificate of Eligibility to the  Guarantee to be shared.

2) They will ask for various documents:

If documents are compulsory, you should upload that to your parents in addition. You can add the Certificate of Eligibility to the guarantee of your guarantor's proof of revenues.

If documents are not compulsory, you can share your Certificate of Eligibility with the Guarantee instead.

Good luck with your research!

Don't forget: at any time you can ask us to contact the landlord or the agent whom you have met.

How do I cancel my guarantee renewal?

On the expiry date of your lease, if you do not want to renew your guarantee, simply send us a document certifying that you are leaving your accommodation.

If you do not want to renew your guarantee, you must inform us.

Without any return from you, the renewal of your guarantee and the payment will be made automatically.

There are three options for canceling your contract:

1- If you intend to stay in the accommodation, we need a guarantee waiver certificate drawn up and sent by your landlord to support@garantme.fr.

* As a reminder, a tenant who wants to leave the accommodation must send his notice of departure to his landlord, by registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt, 30 days before the desired departure (30 days if the rental is empty and in a non-tended area).

2- If you have already left the apartment, you must send us the inventory of fixtures at support@garantme.fr.
