What is a Guaranty Agreement?

If you need to guarantee someone's credit worthiness, you can use our personal Guaranty form. Whether you want a bank to loan money to a family member, or hold off on collections for his or her late phone bill, being a guarantor comes with the responsibility that you will repay their debt if they do not. Using a Guaranty Agreement can help protect you by specifying the terms of this arrangement. 
 
A Guaranty Agreement is a contract that outlines your role in the process. It supports the obligation of a borrower to a lender; in the primary contract the borrower agrees to provide the lender with something of value, like money or goods and services. Completing a Personal Guaranty Form you, the "guarantor," agrees to fulfill the promise of the borrower if he or she does not come through with their obligation. A Guaranty Agreement can be used to guarantee the repayment of a loan, the repayment of additional credit on an already past-due loan, the payments due under a lease, or the payment of future balances from credit card purchases. With a Guaranty Agreement, the guaranty can be "absolute" ( you will assume the obligation if the borrower cannot, for any reason) or "conditional" (your liability as the "guarantor" is conditional on a particular event in addition to the borrower's default), and can be restricted to a specific transaction or amount, or may cover any obligations over an indefinite period of time.

When to use a Guaranty Agreement:

  • You want to help someone secure a loan.
  • Someone is facing collections, and you're up for helping them negotiate revised or new terms.
