Of course you can. If it is a large apartment complex or upscale home where a credit check is run, they may decline to rent to you just as if you had bad credit. Most of the time after bankruptcy that's the only way to get a residence.

Yes, in most cases your credit history can not be the sole basis for rejection of coverage. Your claims history and animals will be the biggest determining factor in whether you get coverage or not.

Sure, if you can find a landlord willing to rent to you.

Some landlords will not rent to people who have evictions on their credit reports. Other landlords will do so, but demand a higher security deposit or a higher amount of rent, because the tenant has demonstrated a problem paying rent in the past. Others don't care very much.

Unfortunately, the sorts of landlords who neglect to run credit reports at all are the ones most likely to have other kinds of problems such as with proper maintenance and upkeep of the buildings they rent. It's kind of a vicious circle -- the better tenants tend to hook up with the better landlords, and the not-so-good tenants tend to wind up with the not-so-good landlords. Hopefully you can be an exception to that general rule.

Whatever happens, be sure and keep good records of all your negotiations and records of all your rental payments. Good luck.

If you were evicted due to complaints or damages as a result of domestic violence, there may be certain protections afforded to you. Check with legal aid if that is the case.

Also if you were evicted due to complaints or damages as result of your addiction and you are currently in recovery from drugs and alcohol then you could request a reasonable accommodation to the management company's policy as recovering addicts and alcoholics are considered disabled under the Fair Housing Act are are entitled to request such accommodations.

You could rent it, but chances are that the management will be poor until the bankrupcy is discharged.
