stuffing up once - or twice - is forgiveable.
but 60 applications in 6 months and all refused lights up neon signs.
poor kids.
Maybe I am too naive, but I wonder how many landlords on this thread who think the worst of this woman would approve an application from a mum with two kids who only works part time and whose current address is the back seat of a vehicle?
She said she has kept quiet about living in her car due to embarrassment and only a few close friends knew. I don't understand why those friends didn't offer her more help, but that is all we know. Perhaps she doesn't have family in the same area or perhaps there are family issues. I just thought she seemed distraught but genuine. I know when my brother "ran away" from home, every time my parents found him and offered him assistance, he disappeared again.
It seems I am in the minority for thinking she is genuine (and I realise I could be wrong), but the little snippet I saw showed a woman in crisis. I know how, as a private landlord, I have heard people say they have trouble finding a place.
I hope she finds a nice warm place tonight. She and the kids looked pretty nice to me.
