Answer 1

Private landlord (ie not going through agents)

or pay upfront - for say, 6 months at a time.

The only reason agents would require a guarantor is if you dont earn enough (on paper) to afford the property (I think the rule is you need to earn 2.5 times the rent) - or you fail a credit check.
