A hard search, and what it taught me. A client’s mother couldn’t qualify for a main-residence lease on her own modest pension, even with her children paying the rent. A joint guarantee didn’t work, a guarantor is mostly accepted for students, and advance rent is hardly done anymore. The only solution: a Civil Code lease for a second home, with full transparency with the agency. The full story is on the blog, link in bio.
