My friend is trying to get an apartment and has not been approved yet. He applied for two different apartments, both of which he was not accepted due to his bad credit. What can a person do to get around this problem. He makes plenty of money, he just has a bad credit history. Does anyone know what he can do short of getting a cosigner?

You may have to go to a Two-Family house or an apartment with a real Landlord and not a business office. Its personally up to them if they want to let you move in. I live in Cleveland, and my credit is horrible, I got into a two-family in a nice neighborhood, but I couldnt get a lease with the other apartments because of my credit. Go to, they may have some.

You’ll need to rent from a private individual. It will help if you have a previous good rental history. I’d check the local newspaper, but don’t fall for those “good credit bad credit” ads and I’d chk Craigslist for rentals. You can also chk bulletin boards in public places for rental lisitings by private parties.
