Which credit score matters when renting?
Which credit score matters when renting? While there's no universally required credit score needed to rent an apartment, having a solid credit score can certainly help your chances of a landlord handing you a set of keys. In general, a landlord will look for a credit score that is at least “good,” which is generally in the range of 670 to 739.
Can I rent with a credit score of 580?
Honestly, a 580 credit score won't prevent you from renting in most cases. It's possible to get a mortgage or an unsecured credit card with a 580 credit score, after all. If you have a job and can offer to make a larger than normal deposit, I can almost guarantee that someone will rent to you.
