Because SherlockHomes was designed to make renting real estate easier, we offer our users a free Provisional Rental Guarantee Certificate. A simple, fast and efficient service to boost your next rental application. The 4 reasons to switch to the No Deposit Rent Guarantee when renting an apartment or a house in Geneva, Lausanne, Fribourg, Neuchâtel and surroundings.
The No Bank Deposit Rent Guarantee is an alternative to a bank deposit that prevents tenants from tying up their money for the duration of their lease in a bank account.
In general, paying the security deposit is the prerequisite for a rental agreement in Switzerland. However, SherlockHomes offers to reassure the landlord in another way, as soon as the application is submitted, thanks to the non-blocked security deposit.
Our partner FirstCaution will act as guarantor in your place with the lessor. How ? Through the payment of an annual premium during the term of your lease.
