Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California
why a credit report?
Just wondering how important credit is when trying to lease a new apartment? My husband and I are trying to lease a bigger apartment and our credit is poor, but we have great renting history and income so we are wondering how much credit will play into the management's decision.

Re: why a credit report?
Credit considerations are subjective with each LL or property mgr., although a trouble-free rental history is always a good hand. You'll just have to toss your cards up and see how they fall. Good luck.
