What are ways to get approved with no rental history? I have no idea how to fill out, "Landlord", "landlord phone number", etc.Tenants can text "RENT HISTORY" to (855) 6102450 or fill out this online form. Absolutely. Every corporate landlord checks employment history, rental history and credit history. Many mom and pop landlords do as well. If the apartment is rent stabilized, you will receive the rent history in the mail (at the address you shared in your request). If the property you are interested in is posted online, you can fill out the application online and e-mail the same to the property manager. If you don't have any rental history, don't worry. You can ask a family member or someone you trust to act as co-signer. Now, if you have an eviction in your record, don't worry.
