Tenant Referencing for Landlords

Choosing the right tenant from the start can eliminate the stress of late or missing rent payments and reduce the risk of damage to your property. Rentguard offers landlords a range of services designed to assist you in choosing the right tenant.

To further protect you from loss of rental income we also offer a range of Rent Guarantee Insurance products.

Pay as you go!

Our Landlord referencing services are provided on a pay as you order basis. At the time of placing your order, payment by debit/credit card is required.
