I would like to prepare to find and rent a house in the next 2 months. I have had some hard finical times in the past with job and health and other matters and now my credit is bad and I do have a broken apartment lease on my record and car repossession.
Now I am on the path to financial responsibility and accountability and started repairing my credit and paying bills on time and steady work. I now have no credit cards and I will be done paying car loan in the next 2 months.
I would like to rent a house for my family, but I keep getting rejected because my credit history.
Questions:
1. https://www.dmrpropertieshouston.com/ I am considering using this service to assist me to find rental home. I pay them a fee and they use their rental property connections or networking to landlord to influence them that I am reliable enough to rent one of their home.
Have you use them before and do you recommend them?
2. Do you have any other options for me or services I can use to rent a home?
Yes, I gave dealership big down payment last week and tripling my payment to have paid off in 3 months from now. They didn't look at my past credit history.
I don't want no car payment for few years.

...to influence them that I am reliable enough to rent one of their home.
The question comes down to YOUR credit history vs the credit history of anyone else applying.
iow... don't try to change a LL's mind just be better than the OTHER applicants.
How far into the ghetto do you have to go to do that?

I don't trust a company that has typos and grammatical errors on their website.

I checked out their FB page. Another thing I don't trust - they have all positive reviews? Not one person is disatisfied? I don't believe it.

So, large down payment and a 9 month loan that you're paying three months each month on?
You don't get broken leases on your record. Only thing close is if a prior landlord had to sue you and if that is the case then you are SOL for a while. Look in the worst neighborhoods for no credit check places is probably your best bet.
One landlord judgment and there is no way I would ever rent to anyone, I have enough problems with deadbeats without taking them on directly.
