Question: How difficult will it be for me to find an apartment if I had to declare bankruptcy last year?
Answer:
The process can potentially be problematic for a renter who has filed a bankruptcy petition; however one of our experienced agents may be able to show properties where the landlord will be understanding. In this connection, the potential renter needs to be prepared with a few items:
1. A reference letter from their current landlord representing they are good tenants;
2. A creditworthy guarantor to co-sign in the event they default with their rent payments; and
3. Additional security or pre-paid rent.
