How it works

Registration

Before ordering a tenant reference, you must first register.

Registration is FREE for ALL Letting Agents

We ask you to provide your agency name, address and contact details.

Once you have completed the simple registration process you will receive a user name and password by email which will enable you to access the service and one of our account managers will contact you.


Ordering

Our Letting Agent services are available online or by submitting completed application forms to us for processing. Our systems have been designed to be self-explanatory but below are some tips to help you get started.

Sending online applications to your tenants/guarantors

To make things even easier; you can complete these details yourself (online) or you can invite your tenants (or guarantors) to complete their own applications online.

Simply provide the name and e-mail address of each prospective tenant or guarantor and we will send each person an e-mail asking them to complete their application online.

You will be able to check the status of the application at any time and view their application details within your account.

At the end of the process your tenant will be asked to print and return a signed declaration. This will authorise the applicants’ referees to respond to our enquiries.

A fax or email scan is sufficient for the majority of employers.

Submitting paper application forms to us

If you prefer, you can give a paper application form to each prospective tenant/guarantor and return them to us when they have been completed.

Please send completed application forms to:

Rentguard Referencing
Miners Way
Canterbury
Kent CT3 4LQ

Alternatively you can fax them back on 0333 000 0164 or email them to support@rentguardtenantref.co.uk

Authorisation to carry out checks

It is against the law to carry out a credit check without first obtaining permission from the tenant. Simply download the consent form and retain a copy signed by the applicant and, if required, the guarantor.
