Refugee families should be listed as tenants on their lease agreements, and they will be expected to sign the lease shortly after arrival. Most landlords require a guarantor or cosigner since the family will have no credit history. In such cases, World Relief asks that the co-sponsorship group cosign the lease. The cosigner can be an individual or an organization affiliated with your group. We can provide best practices and information to ease any concerns about this.
Please Note: Do not make any rental commitments until you are assured of the arrival of the family.
