Can't find F/T Working guarantor

hi all, heres my situation;
i sold my house in Oct 09 and moved into a rental property arranged via the agent that sold the house.
now i want to move into another rented property with another agent. this new agent is asking for a full-time working guarantor as i work part-time. however i cannot find one. my employer has refused in case they are pursued for unpaid rent. now i realise everyone else i know either works part-time or is retired.
there is 75K sitting in my bank accounts so paying the rent indefinitely will not be a problem.but i seem stuck because i can't get soemone to sign this form.
does anyone have any advice?

can't you ask to pay all the rent upfront for the rental term? I know someone who has done that due to the same reason as yours. Therefore you don't need a guarantor.2010 resolutions1- get my 5yo DD dry daytime, with enuresis help dry since 12th Jan so far!

Pay the rent upfront for the 6 months of the initial AST. If they won't wear that, then they are a bit limited in faculties above the neck and you need to find another agent.
Honestly, asking a grown person for a guarantor when there is 75000 in the bank ...Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
