cash for downpayment and first month’s rent will solve this with many independent landlords.
be sure to get a receipt
Texas is ALOT more lenient then California luckily. I would try going through a private person who is renting out their property. They are normally alot nicer and lenient about things. Just make sure you explain your situation and why you have bad credit. When you say bad credit btw do you mean evictions and what not? It will be extremely hard for you anywhere you go with an eviction. Everything else can be worked around and normally if you offer a higher deposit or if you agree to pay one your all good. Hope this helps.
Those Fix you credit sites are scams!
Get federal form r260-B. It’s designed to help people in a pinch with bad credit (specifically for rental properties but rental cars as well). It asks questions about your tax returns so you’ll need last year’s as well.
Pay the lease in advance…..
