Move forward with more confidence.

The deposit and guarantor are two of the biggest barriers to renting. Proper Rent helps you understand the support available, so you can make your next move with clarity.

Deposit Share

Keep more of your savings for the move.

Deposit Share can cover up to 85% of your required deposit on day one, while your landlord still receives the full protected amount. That means less cash tied up before you move and more room to focus on finding the right home.

  • Up to 85% of the deposit covered on day one.
  • Your landlord receives the full protected deposit.

Guarantor Solutions

No traditional guarantor? You may still have a way forward.

A guarantor solution can make renting feel more achievable when the usual route is not straightforward. If you are a student, new to the UK, self-employed, or receiving Universal Credit, we’ll help you understand your options and choose a clear next step.

  • Support built around your circumstances.
  • Clear guidance before you decide on a next step.

Straight answers before you take the next step.

Everything you need to know before you register and start your move with Proper Rent.

Can Proper Rent show me live available listings?

Not directly on the website. A Proper Rent agent confirms current availability and viewing options after registration.

Does everyone who registers reach an agent?

Yes. Website registrations are never filtered out by the score. The score only helps the agent decide how quickly to follow up.

Can I ask about Deposit Share or a guarantor before registering?

Yes. The tenant page explains those options in general terms. A Proper Rent agent confirms what applies to your situation after you register.

Do I need to have a property in mind already?

Not at all. If you already have a place in mind, we'll look into it for you. If not, we'll help find options that match your budget, location, and situation.
