What is rental guarantee on garantie.be?
It is now possible to obtain an rental guarantee online. The rental deposit contract can be taken out online, and the process is 100% digital.
The lessee signs an online guarantee contract with the financial company GARANTIR (publisher of the garantie.be website). If GARANTIR agrees to act as guarantor, it sends the Rental Guarantee Certificate to the lessor by e-mail.
The online rental deposit contract application process is entirely online. Tenants can track the progress of their deposit application in their customer account on garantie.be.
How does rental guarantee work?
A rental guarantee taken out online works in the same way as a rental guarantee set up in a bank branch. Taking out a rental guarantee online does not change the basic rules of operation.
The guarantee commitment to the lessor can only be extinguished with the lessor’s agreement.
The tenant does not block funds to sign the lease, we guarantee the amount and charge an annual fee for our guarantee. The tenant doesn’t replenish the amount, he just pays the guarantee fee each year.
How much does garantie.be charge for a surety?
GARANTIR guarantees the financial commitments of the rental lease on behalf of the tenant. The amount of the surety fee is proportional to the amount of the rental guarantee guaranteed: The annual surety fee represents 6% of the amount of the rental guarantee, with a minimum amount of €96 per year.
For a rental guarantee of €2,000, the tenant will pay €10 per month in surety fees (€120 as an annual payment) so that we can guarantee the landlord €2,000 of his solvency. The tenant can cancel the surety at any time by blocking the €2,000 rental deposit with a bank and obtaining the landlord’s agreement.
How much does it cost to purchase rental guarantee online?
Subscribing online does not change the legal rules governing the amount of the rental guarantee. The maximum amount authorized for the rental guarantee is set by the rent law and housing code of each of Belgium’s three administrative regions. For further information, please consult our pages on :
In Brussels and Wallonia, the landlord will usually ask for 2 months from rental guarantee, as is the maximum allowed by law in the case of a guarantee constituted by funds blocked by the tenant.
How long does it take to obtain rental guarantee online?
The rental guarantee must be established before signing the lease for a property. The rental guarantee certificate is produced by the bank, or any other organization responsible for certifying the guarantees provided by the tenant. The lease contract is signed by the parties once rental guarantee has been established and the inventory of fixtures has been carried out.
With an online rental guarantee signed on garantie.be, the rental guarantee certificate is issued immediately after validation of the tenant’s request. This means that the time required to obtain the rental guarantee can be as little as a few hours. The certificate is sent directly to the lessor of the rental property.
When is the rental guarantee payment due?
With an online rental guarantee subscription on garantie.be, the tenant does not pay the amount of the rental guarantee. GARANTIR (a financial security company) acts as guarantor for the tenant vis-à-vis the lessor, without the tenant blocking the guarantee funds of the lease. On the other hand, the lessee pays annual financial charges linked to the existence of this rental guarantee.
