Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a co-applicant service?
We act as a corporate guarantor that applies for the apartment *with* you. Our established financial history helps your application meet the landlord's strict requirements for income, credit, and rental history.
Is this legal in South Africa?
Absolutely. Using a guarantor or co-applicant (sometimes called a surety) is a common and legal practice in the South African rental market. We provide a professional, corporate version of this service.
Do you pay my rent or security deposit?
No. You are still fully responsible for paying your own security deposit and monthly rent directly to the landlord. Our role is solely to help you get approved for the lease.
What if my application is still denied?
While our success rate is very high, final approval is always at the landlord's discretion. If an application we co-sign is denied, we will refund 100% of your service fee, no questions asked.
