What if I can't find a guarantor?

Question: What if I can't find a guarantor?
Answer:

If a landlord requires a guarantor but you can't find one, you'll probably need to look for an apartment elsewhere. It may also be a good time to review what you earn and what you can afford, and create or adjust your budget accordingly. Also, keep in mind that if you decide you want to live with a roommate, your rooommate may be able to find a guarantor if you can't.
