How to secure a rental property without past references?

Question

I have never moved out of home before, and I want to start doing so by renting. But agents are always asking for past rental history which I don't have. Is there a way to help convince I'm trustworthy and won't trash the place?

Answer 1

you could try offering a large security deposit, and also first and last months rent.

The security deposit should be for any damages, and if u keep the place up is supposed to be given back to you when you move.
