Im about to get evicted 30 days from my family members, only have $5000 saved up?

[Anonymous]

Where could I go?

[Guy13]

Do you have choices or are you obligated by work, vehicle, or bus lines etc. 5000 is enough for deposit, utility deposit, and 2 months of rent in my area.

[Redstang88]

That’s tons to get an apartment, I’m assuming you have a job?

[Asker]

No I don’t

[Asker]

Its usually 12 month lease

[Redstang88]

Well not having a job will be a hindrance, but what does the lease have to do with anything?

[Asker]

I don’t know. Can I get an apartment even if my income doesn’t exceed the 12 month of $799 yet?

[Redstang88]

Wait, are you asking if you need the whole 12 months up front? Definitely not

[Asker]

No I mean could I do $799 a month and sign the 12 month still even if i didn’t even have enough to pay $799 for the 12 month?

[Redstang88]

Of course, but without a job it’ll be tough

[Asker]

Wouldn’t the owner take me to court for nit being able to pay for 12 whole month?

[Redstang88]

Possibly if you don’t pay your rent. That’s why you need a job 🤦‍♂️
How are you 25+ years old and have zero understanding of how rent works?

[Asker]

Sorry it ain't my fault no one tells me bad influencers

[electromagnetic]

You’ve got 30 days to find a job and an apartment near work to cut travel costs.

[OlderAndWiser]

How much do you think you need? For what?

[NostalgiaSenpi]

Get an apartment ASAP and start looking for a job.

[Asker]

I have to wait on the apartments a lot of the times because they want to see if I qualify.

[Asker]

That’s like 10 days.

[Asker]

Should I just get a place then find a job?
