Re: Anyone know of..

Craig is dead on.

The only way for lenient(sp) credit checks is to look near a college capus or have a parent co-sign. The parent thing doesnt really look like an option so I would think you would need to look near campus.

Stay away from places like roommates.com. My ex tried that in Roseville and ended up living with a meth dealer for a month. The person put on a smile and cleaned up before she came to see the place. You would have never thought her roommate ever even smoked a cigarette when they met. She was lucky and never signed a lease so she just packed up and moved out one day.

I would also look at the ads in the newspaper for care givers. I know that down here in Mankato that old ladies will rent out their basement for close to free to have a person live with them and help them with meals or daily activities. It would be worth looking into.

Good luck.
