I recommend avoiding large apartment complexes; some have
absolute bars to someone with a bankruptcy on their credit
record. Check smaller complexes, or private landlords. I also
recommend looking for a lease with option to buy.

rent an apartment. Did anyone have this experience? What would be the
way around? I would appreciate your advice. Thank you, -- Peter
