Who is Rentmigo

Rentmigo is a professional rent guarantee provider. Tenants who need a rent guarantee to secure a tenancy in the UK can apply through Rentmigo, and if approved, Rentmigo guarantees their rent to the landlord. Rentmigo is a regulated service with structured underwriting, fraud detection, and data protection practices.

What a Responsible Third Party is

A Responsible Third Party (RTP) is someone, typically a parent, family member, or other trusted individual, who provides financial evidence to support a tenant's Rentmigo application. Your information is used as part of the overall assessment to strengthen the tenant's profile.

What a Responsible Third Party is not

You are not a guarantor. You are not signing a legal agreement and you are not taking on liability for the tenant's rent. Your role is limited to providing financial documentation. If the tenant misses a rent payment, you are not pursued for the outstanding amount.
