Rental Security Deposit Insurance

Often called rental deposit insurance, the German product is typically a Mietkautionsbürgschaft — a rental-deposit guarantee. If approved and accepted by the landlord, it may replace the need to lock several months of rent away as cash.

RENTING A HOME? Instead of paying a landlord a large cash security deposit, an approved Mietkautionsbürgschaft may provide the required rental security as a guarantee. How it works ↓
