Living Arrangement Help! Posted: 11-11-04 16:19pm
Hey guys, to make a long story short:
about a year ago, I rented an apartment
from a place here in midland and it was a
2-story townhouse. I fell down the
stairs and was injured, I was advised by
the doctors not to live anywhere where I
would have to constantly go up and down
because of my back and knee. I explained
this all to my landlord, and I gave my
30-day notice, everything. I moved out.
Well, then I get a bill in the mail
saying I owe them a total of like
$700.00...Anyways, I talked to a company
named "rentcorp" ( who was trying to
collect the money) and told them I was not
going to pay that. My question is, now
it's time to move again and we're trying
to get this extremely nice duplex. We
have to get something bigger for the baby.
My question is to everyone: do you think
that this new place will find out about
the last apartment incident if I don't
write it down that I lived there? I have
no idea how this works. I have rented
from 2 other places, and will get good
references. I am just afraid they have
some system (they all use "taa"
applications) that when they type my name
in, it's going to say that I owe someone
else money. Does anyone have any advice?
Please help!!!

I think it will go on your credit. I
think that's why they do credit checks on
you and you have to get approved. Have
you thought about getting a lawyer to help
you dispute your incident?

If you move before it's reported in your
credit than you might be okay, but I would
try and find a way to pay it cause you
don't want to screw your credit up.
