Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking countries, a *fiador* (or *aval*) is a common requirement for renting an apartment or obtaining a loan. The term is more formal than the English ‘guarantor’, and the legal responsibilities of a *fiador* can be quite strict, so it’s wise to clarify the exact obligations before signing any contract.
