What is the PBSA rent guarantee?

Housing Hand offers a UK-based PBSA rent guarantor service. We will stand as the tenant’s guarantor, offering PBSA partners a simple way for students to get guaranteed and move in quickly.

We work with you to understand your unique processes and have a range of options, from API links to custom application pages, that ensure your students can apply for our rent guarantor service.

Why choose Housing Hand for your PBSA rent guarantee?

We are the only award-winning UK rent guarantor service offering fully comprehensive rent, damages and dilapidations coverage. As long as a tenant is eligible, they can sign up with us and we will stand as their guarantor. It’s up to the tenants to pay us each month. You can sit back and relax in the knowledge that rent will be guaranteed.

No longer will you have to turn away perfectly valid tenants because they cannot supply a qualifying UK-based guarantor! Housing Hand provides you with a safe way of ensuring property rentals, without any risk of defaulting tenants.
