While having bankruptcy in your credit history may present some challenges when attempting to rent a home, it’s still very possible to achieve.
Because most property owners require that you submit to a credit check before they’ll rent to you, it may be pretty difficult to hide your bankruptcy filing. However, if you can demonstrate a history of on-time payments, provide references and offer more money up front (such as a larger security deposit), you may have an easier time qualifying.
Consider applying for a home rented by a private property owner (rather than a large rental management company) to improve your chances.
