Paying your Rent?
Paying your Rent?
You'll have the option to either pay your rent monthly or payments falling in line with your student loan. Or you can pay the full tenancy upfront. If you are on a joint tenancy you will need to decide as a group the best option for you.
You are required to provide a guarantor to vouch for your rental payments. They must be in a position to pay the rent if you fail to do so. This is usually mum or dad or legal guardian.
