Not quite ready for homeownership?

If you are not quite ready to be a homeowner and would like to rent for a time while preparing yourself I can help you with that as well. It is important for you to know that the qualifications for renting are very similar to that of purchasing. Your credit score and your income will need to be about the same. Usually, the only difference is they don’t take your debt to income ratio into account.

If you do decide to rent here are some good things to keep in mind:

Your credit score needs to be at least 620 and your income needs to be at least 2.5 times one months rent. They will also look at your criminal and rental history.

It is a good idea to treat your showing almost like a job interview. This goes for your appearance and demeanor.
