I owe my last apartment 900$ and I terminated the lease that was for one year the fourth month i lived there. I gave them 60 day notice i was leaving. My question is do I really have to list them as my last address on the next rental application I apply for? I'm living back with my family now and it was my first apartment and I messed it up i know. What exactly do they check when reviewing a persons application for an apartment? What are my chance of getting another nice place not in a shit hole? I have decent credit not near the best. thanks!!
 
If you gave a 60 day notice AND paid thru the notice, that usually is a good thing. However, you did not fulfill the term of the lease, and you still owe them $900 (?); so that could go against you. Good that your credit is in tact for the moment, but depending how the landlord wishes to report it, the breaking of the lease could have an adverse affect. If you used your ss number when you rented the last place, the history will most likely show up when you rent your new place. If you left for a legitimate reason, explain that ahead of time when you apply for another lease. It helps to tell the truth. Good luck!
