hi Fran,
I saw the post you put regarding getting an apt in albuquerque that would allow convicted felons. I sent you a friend request, as i'm needing the same. My son is disabled and has felony nothing violent, is trying to get his life back on track. We are having a difficult time finding a home to rent. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My email address is nativechoctaw57@gmail.com. Thank you

A lot of the big complexes have those types of rules (obviously to cut down on possibility of theft/burglaries). But given the expansive criminal community in Albuquerque, I'm sure you'll be able to find plenty of places that will overlook your uncle's past.

Remember, a felon is just someone that got CAUGHT. Most politicians certainly fit this category, but their money and good lawyers keep them out on the streets. And in office forever, and ever, and ever it seems.

Actually, a person convicted in a court of law of a felony crime is known as a felon.

Is is possible for us to get an appartment in albuquerque that's not in totally bad area? we have a young child and need a decent place to live. What should I do?
T & C Management rents to felons as long as the felon has a case manager. if your man doesn't have a P.O. or case management in place, he can go to Open Skies Healthcare or Albuquerque Healthcare for the Homeless Social Services Office on Broadway and Mountain. These places offer case management services.

Good luck to you!

Not a whole lot has changed.

For housing, stay away from corporate-managed places and go for mom and pop landlords. Some (probably not very bright) will not bother with a background check.

This may take the form of a trailer or a freestanding house instead of an apartment in a larger building.

NM is chock-full of felons and very few of them are homeless. This'll just require you to work twice as hard as your counterpart with the luckier past.

I can state from my own experience in owning and renting a place in Albuquerque that what the state classifies as a 'non violent' felon is eligible for renting a place. Of course if they don't follow the rules the owner/agency can use their discretion in kicking them out.
