If she gets someone to co-sign for her ( parent or guardian is the best bet) she may be able to get an apartment. I got my apartment with hardly any credit history, so she may luck out as well. |

She needs to look for apartments not rented out by agencies, more or less by a person looking to rent an apartment. Not all places look for credit checks however plenty look for back ground checks. Is there not a state funded type of organization for people recovering in your state? I live in CT, and they have a organization like that, they can get on section 8 and rent. |

She can offer to pay a month or two extra in advance. This might not automatically get in her somewhere, but it should help. |

Sometimes landlords might be more comfortable if you give them a larger deposit. Perhaps she should try paying a extra month in advance. It could help the prospective landlord trust her and see that she has money now... and that the past is just the past.
Good luck! |

She can look into renting from an individual, rather than a property management co, individual landlords are less likely to run credit checks. Also, many places will still rent to people with poor credit if they put down a larger security deposit. |

About the only solution is to find an apartment that doesnt run a credit check, they are out there, as long as ya have first and last months rent, you can usually get into one, the downside is, that you will probably not be living next to alot of classy individuals. |

She can get an apartment with a co-signer or a huge down payment. It's very hard for people these days to get anything with bad credit. I put down $1600 for my apartment with a 2 yr old forclosure. Some people go through tought times...I hope this girl is really trying to walk down the right path. |

If she offers and keep her word to keep the rent paid two months in advance; I think she may find an apartment |

maybe a co- signer or someone to put it in their name, if she has someone she knows who trusts that she will pay on time and honor her lease. It would have to be some one willing to put their credit on the line for her.
I wish her luck.
A rent house with out credit checks might be a better idea. |
