Apartment rentals that do not require a credit check are rare in most places. Smaller towns with cooler rental markets are less likely to have credit checks, while hotter rental markets with a ton of demand are far more likely to involve credit and income requirements.
The easiest way to rent with bad credit is by leasing with the help of a cosigner. A cosigner is a person with great credit and income who can vouch for you. Keep in mind that your apartment cosigner will be responsible for any unpaid rent you leave behind. Most renters work with a parent, guardian, or trusted family member.
In addition to splitting the cost of rent, living with a roommate can make it easier to secure an apartment without credit. If your roommate has a high credit score, they can help you secure an apartment that would otherwise be out of range. Keep in mind that any unpaid rent would legally be your roommate's responsibility.
