I am a student looking for a one bedroom apartment in Ottawa.
I looked at lots of apartments and decided on one to apply for.
I filled in the application, as well as another application for my mom as a cosigner.
I also told them, come any problems I can get my dad to cosign as well.
They said no problem, so I took a 1 hour bus ride to go hand in the applications and a certified check for last months rent.
About an hour and a half later, I get a call saying I’d been denied. Even when I asked multiple times they said they can’t disclose why I got denied.
I even said again that if it was because the cosigner, I can get my dad to do it as well. They then told me to go pick up my cheque(which cost me .50) from the dropbox at the front of the building.
I feel like I didn’t get accepted for the apartment because I’m a younger(22)
I then went to my office at the apartment I’m currently living in, which I have always paid on time and had no problems. The lady said that they never called as a reference.
Does it only take an hour and a half to properly look at a leasing application?
I am going to make a complaint to the BBB.
Does anyone else have any suggestions for me? I feel like I am being wronged here as the apartment I’m currently in would have gave me a great reference and is 5 a month more. How would I get accepted here but not at a cheaper one?
@DNT — Thanks for your answer. That was the kind of answer I am looking for.

@Ed Fox — How immature of me? I’m a student asking a question because I don’t know the answer. How immature of you to try to belittle me. I bet your some fat slob that lives through his computer and is too coward to let out your anger in person so you resort to belittling younger people online. Real tough guy.

@Janet P — Thankyou for your answer. I’m not asking however because I want to force them into renting to me, I’m asking why I could be denied and if an hour and a half is an appropriate time for going over an application.
@HereIAm — Thanks for your answer. It was through an agency I believe. I did also include a reference in the application but they didn’t bother calling them because I checked. As for the type and age, they never specified that in the ad, and when I viewed the apartment, they guy showing me said it was no problem to be a student.

I’ve done almost everything I don’t like as a profession. What next?

worked as auto claims adjuster, rental car salesman, at apartment rental service, library page, paid intern at talent agency, intern at music promotion company, internship at radio program, ESL teacher in Bulgaria, contruction type stuff, guitarist in bands in Hollywood, and waiter. Other jobs too.

I do have B.A. in History. "I Can’t Get No Satisfaction."
I did enjoy the Entertainment Industry stuff but of course it is not enough to make living.

I recently called code services on the apartment I live at (for many reasons) and the code services have mailed (to me, so I’m assuming to my rental agency as well) that they have 30 days to fix the myriad of issues brought up.
Previous times, (I even talked with my neighbor about this) and maintenance has been known to stop by without giving any prior warning. Now, I’ve put in a work request before, but it took more than 48 hours for maintenance to finally stop by.

Am I out of line to let them know my schedule for when I’m home, and tell them I do not want maintenance entering the unit unless I’m home? It’s not a hectic schedule, but there are days when I’m not home at all, then spring break I’m not going to be home at all…

Incoming search terms:

• can maintenance come in your apartment without notice?
• can maintenance enter office

I left my old apartment in 2006 because I deployed to Iraq for 16 months. Everything was fine until a few days ago when they started calling me telling me I need to pay what I owe (6). When I left everything was cleared and I got my deposit back too. They say it’s for past due rent, but I was never past due and I paid for the 3 extra days I was there. Will this cause my rental app to be denied at a rental agency? What all will cause me to be denied?
No, I don’t have any records. I took everything with me overseas because I had no place else to put it and it was just stuff I could carry myself. All of my stuff (personal and military) was destroyed in a fire cause by mortars.

I moved into my apartment and when I paid my security and first months rent I was told that there was a rental fee of 0 in addition to what I already paid. I did not go through a rental agency or realtor agency this was coming from the landlord.
I forgot to mention that there was not application to fill out and that I live in the Essex County area in NJ.
I needed to move in right away and they sprung it on me the day that I paid my Security and was to get the keys. At that time I didn’t know what else to do. They signed my receipt for the rental fee on the back of my lease and it says just that "renta fee". I feel like my landlord was trying to take advantage of a dyer need situation.
