It's a nice little area close to civilization. I'm a big fan.

Next step is fixing up my credit! One thing at a time though....

SOOOOO relieved.

I am defninitely checking out that credit forum. My time spent on Craigslist searching out apartments can be spent boning up on some financial info.

Thanks again!

Congratulations!!! Another success story. One day at a time. Don't jump into one of these so called "credit repair" services. Do your homework, get a copy of your credit report, all of them, see exactly what you are dealing with. And -- most of all -- again, Congratulations!!! All the best.

That's unlikely, as Jillian's post is over two years old.

Yes it is true. The landlords in Elizabeth are MONEY HUNGRY, they never want to fix anything, plus you get the bed bugs, the rent increases and the harrasment always breathing on your neck watching who goes in and out your apartment etc. When I become a landlord I hope I am never that greedy and careless !!! No one in Elizabeth who has a rental seems to be human anymore. They prob forgot what it was like when they had kids, pets, etc and had to rent. These folks are shameless...

I have an appointment to see the place on Monday. It's within my price range (even a little less woohoo!) and they allow small pets. It's also a working class neighborhood, so I can't imagine that my current credit situation is a unique one. Who isn't having financial problems these days???

It's on East 3rd and Park, Roselle right by the park. I took a google street view and it seemed pretty nice. I've been reading on this forum about Roselle, and for the most part I've heard it's relativley safe, a mostly african american community, but not so hot for kids to go to public school. This is all fine by me since I have no kids, and have no problems being in an ethnically diverse neighborhood. We're going at night, so I think I will get a pretty realistic view of what it's like (i hear a lot that going to certain neighborhoods at night when the crazies come out is a more accurate repersentation of what to expect.)

Here's hoping it works out. if it's good, I'm just going to take it on the spot. Besides, it'll be closer to the new soccer stadium in Harrison. Always a plus!

Are you still living at these apartments? Im having a hard time finding apartments with my credit score. Do you know the name of the apartments?

They haven't posted anything since 2011, unlikely they'll get back to you.
