Would You Pay More to Secure Another Rental After Being Recently Evicted?
Some landlords are actually taking recent evictions. However, they want more upfront money to move in. There are laws that prevent this from happening. Will renters still move forward with securing a new property for more money down?
It's like Financing a car. If your credit score is low, they require more as a deposit. Is this the same thing?
