About Us

We help renters secure homes with a UK guarantor

A 3D rendered illustration featuring Percy the pigeon mascot with a teal body, black eye, yellow beak and feet, positioned in front of a stylised cityscape with yellow houses with orange roofs, blue apartment buildings, green trees, and yellow clouds. The character appears to be gesturing welcomingly with cream-coloured wings. Below the scene is the text 'HOUSING HAND' in large dark blue capital letters against a light grey background
Interior view of the Housing Hand office showing a modern open-plan workspace with exposed ceiling elements, industrial pendant lighting, and wooden floors. A prominent dark grey feature wall displays the company name 'housing hand' in large white lowercase letters with the tagline 'More than a guarantor' below. The space includes contemporary furniture, plants, shelving units, and workstations, creating a welcoming professional environment.

Renting should be simple.
But for many students and professionals, securing a place to live without a UK guarantor can feel impossible. That’s where we come in – to make things easier, fairer, and more welcoming.

We’re here to help you move in
As the UK’s largest rent guarantor service, we’ve supported over 95,000 students and professionals from all around the world. With more than 4,000 trusted partners, we’ve guaranteed over £800 million in rent – helping people settle into homes they love.

The team includes men and women of various ages and ethnicities, dressed in casual business attire, arranged in two rows with some seated and others standing.

Let’s work together
We partner with landlords, letting agents, private student halls, universities and embassies to create tailored solutions that fit seamlessly into your existing systems. Whether you’re managing one property or hundreds, we’ll make the process smooth and simple.

Support for everyone
No matter where you’re from or what your story is, we’ve got you. Whether you’re a student starting fresh or a professional relocating for work, we’ll match you with the right service – so you can move in with confidence.

Be part of something bigger
Since 2013, we’ve grown to become the UK and Ireland’s leading rent guarantor – but we’re just getting started. Our mission is to make renting fairer and more accessible for everyone, and we’re building new products to meet the needs of today’s renters.
