Terms

Guarantee and indemnity

As security for the Guaranteed Tenant’s performance of their obligations under the Tenancy, the Guarantor, jointly and severally, agrees to guarantee and indemnify the landlord against the Guaranteed Tenant’s performance of all their obligations under the Tenancy. This includes guaranteeing and indemnifying: the payment of rent due under the Tenancy (including rent increases) to the limit set out in clause 3 of this agreement;
- any damage caused during the Tenancy by the Guaranteed Tenant, anyone they allow to visit the property, or any of the other tenants in the property;
- Any costs, expenses, damages, fees, or losses incurred by the Landlord as a result of any default by the Guaranteed Tenant including but not limited to all legal fees and costs of possession proceedings on an indemnity basis, to the extent that the Guaranteed Tenant is liable under the terms of the Tenancy but also always only insofar as is in accordance with the terms of this guarantee.
The Guarantor agrees to pay to the Landlord’s nominated bank account within 14 days on written demand all sums due and owing under the terms of this deed of guarantee and indemnity.

Rent liability

The Guarantor’s liability for the rent due under the Tenancy (including any rent payable after a rent increase) is limited to 100% of the full rental amount for each rental period that falls due during this Agreement.

Other liabilities

This guarantee and indemnity is against the Guaranteed Tenant’s performance of their obligations under the Tenancy to the full extent of their liability (notwithstanding any limitation on this liability in respect of rental payments only, as set out in clause 3). This includes any obligations that the Guaranteed Tenant is jointly and severally liable for with other occupants of the property.

The landlord will be entitled to recover on an indemnity basis all legal costs which the Landlord may incur in recovering any payment due from the Guarantor under this deed of guarantee and indemnity.

This guarantee and indemnity includes liability for all damages, costs, and charges for use and occupation during any period of holding over by the Guaranteed Tenant following determination of the Tenancy by whatever means.

Duration of the guarantee

The Guarantor’s obligations under this agreement will start on the commencement date of the Tenancy and continue through any variations, continuations or renewals of the Tenancy which the Guaranteed Tenant continues to be a party to.

This Guarantee may not be revoked by the Guarantor, and their obligations will end at the point the Tenancy is formally brought to an end and the Guaranteed Tenant has vacated the Property and discharged all outstanding obligations.

The end of the Tenancy will not release the Guarantor from any liabilities that accrued prior to the termination of the Tenancy. This includes any breaches of the tenancy that the Landlord only becomes aware of after the termination of the Tenancy.

Revocation or discharge of the Guarantee

This guarantee and indemnity cannot be revoked or discharged by the death, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Guarantor. If the Guarantor dies, then their estate will be liable as surety and coprincipal debtor.

This guarantee and indemnity cannot be revoked or discharged by the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Guaranteed Tenant.

The death of the Guaranteed Tenant will not revoke or discharge the Guarantor from any obligations under this Agreement, subject to Clause 13-16 of this agreement.

Death of tenant(s) under an Assured Periodic Tenancy

Where the Tenancy is an Assured Periodic Tenancy entered into on or after 1st May 2026, then Section 16N of the Housing Act 1988 applies to this Agreement. The Guarantor’s obligation to Guarantee further rent payments will cease from the point that one of the following applies:

- Where the Guaranteed Tenant is the only tenant named on the Tenancy, on the date that they die;
- Where the Guaranteed Tenant is not a family member of the Guarantor, and more than one tenant is named on the Tenancy, on the date the last named tenant on the Tenancy dies;
- Where the Guaranteed Tenant is a family member of the Guarantor, on the date the Guaranteed Tenant dies;
- Where more than one Guaranteed Tenant is a family member of the Guarantor, when the last Guaranteed Tenant who is a family member of the Guarantor dies.

Nothing in clause 13 prevents the Landlord from demanding payment of rent that was outstanding prior to the death of the relevant tenant(s) or payment for other outstanding liabilities.

Any rent due for the rental period in which the relevant death occurred will be apportioned according to Section 16N of the Housing Act 1988 so that no rent is due for that portion of the rental period covering the days after the death of the relevant tenant(s).

For the purposes of clause 13 a family member of the Guarantor is defined as someone who meets the following criteria upon entering into this Agreement or after the Agreement is entered into:

- The spouse, civil partner or cohabitee of the Guarantor;
- The child, grandchild, parent, grandparent, siblings (including half-blood or step siblings), niece, nephew, aunt, uncle, or cousin of the Guarantor, their spouse, civil partner or cohabitee, or the spouse, civil partner or cohabitee of any such person.

Reduction, discharge or limitation of liability

The liability of the Guarantor will not be reduced, discharged or limited or adversely affected if –

- a term of the Tenancy is varied or amended, including the amount of rent payable for each rental period
- the Tenancy agreement is renewed but the Guaranteed Tenant remains a party to the renewed Tenancy.
- the Landlord does not take or delays any action to enforce compliance with the Tenancy or Agreement.
- the Landlord gives the Guaranteed Tenant or the Guarantor any time to pay or opportunity to make good any non-compliance with the terms of the Tenancy or the Agreement.

If any provision or term of this deed shall be held or made invalid, unenforceable, unlawful or of no effect, by any statute, regulation, court ruling or rule, the remainder of this deed of guarantee and indemnity shall not be affected thereby and shall continue to have full force and effect.
This Agreement will continue in force, even if one or more terms of the Tenancy are held to be invalid or unenforceable.
