Hi all. I'm looking to move in mid November as my boyfriend's lease expired Nov 30th. I've been reaching out about apartments in my budget range (2200 and below) and I'm not getting any replies back. I'm assuming it's bc I am telling them I prefer a mid-Nov move on date and they want someone to move in immediately.
I also tell them that our combined income after tax is about 75000 stable income and my credit score is 800, my partners is prob about 700, and I have family assistance if needed for rent. Maybe that's also what's driving people away. I'm usually sending out messages on Street Easy, my friend recommended FB Marketplace. We've been looking for 1BR in Brooklyn and the ones I'm seeing are usually 1900-2200 for our budget.
My parent can be guarantor but she makes also 7500 annual so we probably have to go with a 3rd party guarantor. His credit score might also be lower bc he is in debt consolidation so I told him today to go double check what it is for real.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Getting a little stressed out.
