my friend & i have been trying to rent a place for a few months now but have failed because our monthly income isn't enough. in marin county we have to make tripe the amount of rent a month to get a place. so at the moment were looking at 2 br's for around $1550..do the math..that's A LOT for two 20 yr olds. so i've tried asking my sister to co-sign but of course, she is worried that her credit could get ruined. my friend told me something about a co-signer that doesn't have to ofiacially be a co-signer. what im saying is that i can get my sister to sign the contract with me, but not have her credit affected at all. i have no idea what this is called. she can say shes giving me enough money to make our income enough a month but if we were late or got into debt,they wouldnt bother her at all. is there any other way to get an apt without a co-signer?
