Review of St. Petersbu,


Question!
Star Rating - 2/19/2016
Hi, I'm moving from the NYC area to Pinellas county shortly and would like to rent a trailer. Unfortunately I now have bad credit, and have been unable to work for the past year due to a disability. I don't yet receive disability benefits (still working on that) and will begin working once I get established again in a new location (I work from home and make about $35K a year..not enough to get by in NYC on your own, but I do what I love). But I do have money saved. Further, my rental history is spotty and outdated, due to having mostly lived with either roommates or family.

My question is, if I am willing to pay 3 months in cash up front + deposit, how easy might it be to rent a mobile home anywhere in Pinellas County? I would pay 6 months up front except I don't plan on being there long-term, just until I get my credit and proof of income straightened out and my boyfriend finds a new job.

Do I have a shot at someone renting to me? Not looking for anything too special, just a place where I likely won't be harassed or attacked. I'm a young female.

Thanks

I just lost my experienced and fact-based detailed "Reply to your Comment" above. This has really pissed me off to the point that I'm not able to repeat my thorough description of what would have been valuable information for you if you are still intending to move down this way. Please respond to let me know whether or not you are still planning to relocate to this beautiful but hot and humid area and I'll be happy to reconstruct my previous helpful, fact-filled comments, which also included zip codes, websites, weather patterns, summertime occupancy and its impact on rentals of both houses and apartments, furnished and unfurnished. I think that it is specific and valuable information that I wish someone would have provided to me before I relocated to another city. I have experienced the transition of the out-of-state relocation both as a single woman and as a wife and mother of small children and pets. Please let me know whether or not you would still find this information useful and I'll reply with described details. Wishing you safe and successful travels, regardless.?????????? deb
