If your salary is 50X monthly rent, you should be in good shape.

Hi Bicoastal -

They need 45-50x the rent to qualify...if you have an issue on your credit as far as things in collections, etc. if they are currently in repayment, you should be okay. However, if you still have items in collections or are not paying back your bills, then it might be an issue.

Good Luck!!

Archstone has a formula, they'll ask for more months. Landmark is Rose, they use a 3rd party firm and really seem to pay attention; your numbers might scare them. Chelsea Tower seemed a bit more desperate, and its cheaper, you might want to look there. The Chelsea Victory (whatever the one with the V) just didn't seem well run at all.

Does anyone know if any of the mentioned building would do a six month lease?
