In Reply to: Sublet - credit check posted by Gwen on July 13, 2001 at 18:52:00:
Probably the reason he "balked" is that he has awful credit and doesn't want you or the LL to find out ... sure you want to sublet to this guy ?
If its only 2 months why not ask for both months rent in advance ?
: Is it a common practice for a landlord to require a credit check for a subletter? I am trying to sublet my apartment in Brooklyn, NY. The apartment is in a brownstone (so I assume that means it's private...) and the landlord occupies the building as well.
: Just wondering because I had a prospective subletter balk at the idea of having to pay $45 for a credit check for a 2 month sublet.
: Thanks,
