How long does a guarantee last?

How long a Rentmigo guarantee lasts, and what happens if the tenant leaves early or stays longer.

Written by Joe Wigoder

Every Rentmigo guarantee lasts for a fixed 3 years from the start date shown on the guarantee certificate.

If the tenant moves out sooner

The guarantee ends when the tenancy ends and the tenant moves out.

If the tenancy continues beyond 3 years

The guarantee doesn't renew automatically. If you'd still like a guarantor in place, the tenant can make a new application, which involves a new assessment and a new fee paid by the tenant.

Why 3 years?

Under the Renters' Rights Act, tenancies in England are rolling with no fixed end date. A 3-year guarantee gives you long-term protection without the tenant needing to renew every year.

Where to check the dates

Start and end dates for each tenant are shown in your dashboard and on their guarantee certificate.
