Renting my first apartment?

Postby emazing17 » Sat Jun 29, 2013 6:05 am

Me and my boyfriend and in the process of trying to rent our first apartment in Brooklyn. Neither one of us have any rental history as we both have been living with our parents. I have listed him as the main applicant on the application he has a credit score of about 750 and about 50,000 dollars in income after taxes and my credit is a 590 ( I have had some issues in the past with debt but am working on re-building it) and I make about 25,000 dollars annually. My question is will my credit score as a co-applicant affect our chances of getting the apartment? I noticed the landlord has used Saferent, has anyone had an experiences with saferent? what factors do they use to make their decision? How big is the credit score weigh on the decision? Any answers would be greatly appreciated!
