I’m separating and need to move out the family home. Husband will stay will two sons (24 and 26).
I have terrible credit history but I am receiving some inheritance soon and I can repay all outstanding debts prior to moving out.
How do I rent if my credit is so poor (I will be able to afford a year upfront).
Any advice greatly appreciated .

Either* offer LLs/agents a guarantor - someone who will legally guarantee to pay any unpaid rent or damage you incur.* offer payment upfront. Show the LL/agent evidence o the money you have/will haveNot all LL/agents will accept this, but some will.Another option is* to become a lodger rather than a tenant ie share with a home-owner/live-in landlord, or* move into a house share with others where you are their lodger, rather than being on the tenancy agreement4
