Finding a rental with an eviction on your record can be challenging, but not impossible. Here’s how to improve your chances:
- Check Your Credit Report: Review your report for inaccuracies and dispute errors. Reliable sources such as Experian can help.
- Offer a Larger Deposit: Show financial reliability by offering more upfront.
- Seek Private Landlords: Individual property owners might be more flexible than large companies.
- Provide References: Offer strong character or employment references to bolster your application.
- Write a Letter of Explanation: Detail circumstances surrounding the eviction and your improved situation now.
- Consider a Co-Signer: A co-signer with good credit can greatly improve your application.
