I have had about 4 recent late rent payments out of the last 12 months due to some unforseen circumstances. Now that that is all cleared up I am getting ready for my move to Chicago.

Anyone know how strict the apt's are with rental history. My credit history isn't the worlds best either, but it isn't the worst either. My income is about $55,000/yr, and my rental history was great before the last few months.

I am looking for an apartment in the range of 1000-1500.

What do yo all think? Will I qualify for a place?

It depends on the person. I have rented from people who don't even run a credit check. You're going to be much better off if you go through an individual landlord rather than a company. Other options include having a co-signer and offer to pay a much larger deposit up front.
