We are 3 years into a 4 year plan. We are currently renting an apartment -- have been here for 6 years so the BK happened while we were already living here and our landlords didn't have to find out about it.
We are thinking of moving and renting another apartment due to my hour+ commute. All of the places we are looking at are big rental communities. I've checked out the smaller ones where I was thinking they wouldn't do a credit check but they are all pretty crappy apartments and I can't picture living at any of them. We live in a decent apartment now and don't want to upgrade or anything -- keep the rent at the same or lower as we have now -- just live closer to work.
Question: What can I expect from the new leasing agency when I apply? Will they flat out reject me or ask for a huge deposit? Should I tell them about the BK at the time I apply or ask what their policy is in advance, or should I just fill out the application and let them find out and see what happens?
Thanks in advance!
