So I'm looking for a place to stay. This is a warning to young people too... And if anyone has something available.
I'm now single, after 6 years we've decided to be adults about it and before we hurt each other rather do what's best for both of us.. I now need a place to stay

You'd think for a someone earning between 10 and 15k a month it would be easy to find a nice single bedroom appartment, but turns out stupid mistakes I made when I was 21 really screwed the pooch.
I got married at 21, many of you will remember that ended horribly in 2012. Well I was stuck with the debt of that marriage and have only now actually recovered financially. Soon I'll have a debt clearance certificate issued by the NCR. And I will be essentially debt free! Yay!
So now, even with what I earn and a relatively good but steady income for 3 years (knives included) it would be easy to find a 1 bedroom apartment.... Well actually not.
I've applied for and paid for rental applications for about 5 places now, Al between R4800 and R6500 a month, after telling estate agents that I am waiting for a clearance certificate, and a letter from my accountant stating I'm debt free and can afford this.... Only to be told
Sure dude, you're a nice guy, apply and I'm sure it will be fine... Well 3k and a bit later in application fees (they all want their own credit reports and fees) I have been declined for every. Single. One.
I'm looking for someone that's will give me a chance, I can pay a deposit off over 2 months, afford up to 6500 a month, I'm really wanting a one-bedroom in a safe area anything in Somerset west, Strand or Gordons bay. I need to get my life back on track again.
So there is a place called De Velde, the rent is like 6k a month. Some of these places have been empty for a while. They'd rather let them stay empty than look at my bank statements and see I can afford it. Any how. Kids, don't marry unless you're sure.
Also, don't let her look at you and tell you shell pick up the slack and you cover the credit stuff... Shit goes south very fast.
