1) Have an excellent credit rating. Each of you should have a bank/checking account in your own names or a joint account.
2) Be ready to provide references (personal or professional) & list your employment history.
3) Have money ready for 1st & last month and/or security deposit. |

Normally there are 4 areas that a landlord will evaluate for acceptance: income (usually you have to make 3X the rent per month); credit history; criminal history; and rental history. More often than not, if the other 3 are positive, they can carry the lack of rental history. You may be asked to put an extra deposit down or have a co-signer for the first 6 months or so, and then you can re-apply on your own. You actually have more of a chance than you expect; no rental history is better than poor history or poor credit. Good luck!
**You can always look online at the site of the place you're applying - they usually have an application with the criteria listed. Or call the manager ahead of time and explain your situation. |

Well many places now check your credit. So if you have decnt credit and pay your bills on time, that should be a good start. And then some landlords look for renting experience, so you may have to look until you find a landlord that will rent to people with no rent history. Your best bet in that case is to rent from a "smaller" landlord opposed to a corporation or large company that owns lots of property.
My first renting experience right after high school was to a guy who owned a few units, but he said he would give my friends and I a chance. So I guess we just got lucky, and you will too I'm sure.
Everyone has to start somewhere, right?!
Good luck in your search! |

have some good personal references , ( remember to tell the people you list your putting them down ) , my son and his g/f put down their pastor, and an old family friend.
They also were very friendly with one of the real estate agents as he was wanting to rent out the place he had been living in but didn't get that one.
Also don't sit back and wait for it to all happen for you, make phone calls ask around , there may be someone who knows someone who is interested in having someone rent they they know.
One trick that seems to be occuring now is that people are offering a years rent up front. Now tell me what landlord would say no to that ?
If you find you cannot get a rental , why not try some housesitting for 6 months so that you have some good references behind you as trustworthy young people? |

One thing landlords look at is your credit history. They also look at your ability to put up two months rent in advance. Your job history also is a factor. And of course your current job and income. |

Apartment living can be nice but there is one thing that can spoil it and that is noisy neighbors. Try to get a unit with the least number of adjacent neighbors. IE the top floor is better than the bottom floor as no one is above you. An end unit is good cause you only have one side neighbor.
Good luck to you, choose careful, a year's lease can be a long time. |

hey dont worry about how to be accepted... what you have to think about is if the place you've decided to rent is good enough for you. it should have good water supply, electricity and must be accessible etc etc etc |
