Hello All,
I'm an international student about to start looking for apartments in NYC. I was wondering if someone could share their experiences with landlords. Did you encounter any trouble with landlords requiring some sort of security from international students? My parents would be willing to co-sign the lease if necessary. However, I don't have much time to find an apartment and am hoping to sign the lease on the spot without too much hassle, paperwork etc. Should I bring along any specific documents proving that I can afford the house/that my parents would support me financially? Is it a huge problem that I won't have a SSN or credit history???
Any help would be very appreciated!
