Would your dad be willing to co-sign for you? That can help if he has good credit.

He would! The only thing is he lives back in Tennessee. I wonder if that would be an issue?

Not necessarily. About 10 years ago, I was all set to rent an apartment in Jersey City, they asked for my guarantor information, and refused because my guarantor lived in New York.

Of my apartments I’ve had here in jersey (both in central and south jersey) my dad has been my guarantor even though he lives in SC! It’s worth trying!
