If you don't put this on your application, it won't affect you. It may be better to just say you have no rental history but you show you have the income to cover the rent. Offer a character reference instead.
Most property managers require an application fee to see the Tenant's seriousness in the rental. Also, they want to make sure you are not wasting their time with bad credit or bad rental history.
The consequences for lying on a rental application is probably going to be the same as lying on a job application: if you do get an apartment and it is later found that your application was false your lease could be terminated and you could be evicted. However, in most cases it depends on the type of lie that was detected. For example if you deny that you have criminal record, especially a sex offense, and they find that you do have criminal record you obviously will be denied an apartment. The general rule is: if you're going to fill out an application for anything, be it a job or an apartment, anticipate that all the information on it will be verified. This is especially true in apartment applications because apartment complex owners and managers are obliged to protect the residents of their complex by filtering out people who do not meet the minimum rental criteria, such as an acceptable credit history and acceptable criminal record.
Around 5 to 10 years
Yes, it will be very difficult but not impossible. Good luck:)
A criminal background check is permissible if a prospective tenant grants the landlord / manager written permission to do so. That being said, most landlords do not look at criminal history as much as rental history and credit score.
When thinking of moving into an apartment, people do a lot of research into picking the right apartment for them. After all of that is done and the choices have been narrowed down to a couple of places, it’s time to submit an application. There are four main considerations when applying for an apartment lease, and they are a person’s income, rental history, credit history, and criminal background reports. Income A person’s gross income (income before taxes) needs to be at least 3 times the amount of the monthly rent. The only exceptions are when a person is new to the area but can prove through tax records that they’ve met or exceeded the income before relocation, or if they have sufficient money in the bank to cover the rent for the duration of the lease they are applying for. A cosigner is required if the minimum income requirements are not met. Rental History If a person has any rental history, they shouldn’t owe other apartment communities money, or they should be in the process of paying them out. First time renters are usually asked for an employment certificate, otherwise, a cosigner will be necessary. Credit History Bad credit history that has records of repossessions, evictions and bankruptcies won’t necessarily preclude a person from getting an apartment, but tenants would usually require higher deposit from people with bad credit history. People with bad credit history will also be disqualified for lease specials like free first month rent that apartments usually offer. Criminal History It is recommended for people to be upfront with their criminal histories during the application. Some misdemeanors may be allowed. Felonies are almost always rejected. When submitting an application, a person needs to pay the application fee, administration fee, and in some cases, a deposit. Application fees depend on the apartment community but is usually around $45. The application process will verify your rental history, credit history, and income.

It is uncommon for an application to be rejected. However there are a few reasons why it might be. You might have a serious warning against you. It may be because you have a recent history of being impolite to others. Maybe you are under the minimum age. It's also possible that the TIP team doesn't feel you have enough experience on Answers yet. You may ask the TIP team for feedback on your application.

Yes! I am applying for a apartment with very little to make me an attractive candidate. if i were to add a cover letter which explains my history, why i want the apartment, and what would make me a good tenant, would this make any difference to my success?
if a apartment complex does not take your social security number nor checks your credit, and they give you an apartment for rent,when you decide to leave that complex, will you have any credit history on your credit?

The history of the apartment building in Chicago at 6312 W. Belmont Ave dates back to as far as 1928. This is when the initial apartment buildings were erected and have been advancing since then.?æ
Yes, an apartment complex can refuse to rent an apartment to you if you have bad credit. A bankruptcy alone will not stop you from being approved or disapproved from an apartment, they will consider your overall credit score and credit history.
