Searching for an apartment in New York City is and always has been a competitive process, especially one without a brokerage fee. You need to at least try to make the process a little bit less tiresome - Get your finances and necessary paperwork in order before going out apartment hunting. That way, when you find the right apartment you'll be ready to apply and will seem forthcoming to the landlord. Remember, not only do you need to find an apartment that you love, the landlord needs to accept your application for tenancy as well.
All landlords are going to have their own specific criteria and application processes, but most adhere to general standards. Just to be prepared, you should have the following documents ready to submit along with your application:
*
Employment letter *
Recent paystubs *
Recent bank statement *
Clear copy of picture id *
Typewritten explanation of any discrepancies on your credit report or unconventional type of income
As far as finances go, generally landlords will ask for a month's rent + a month's security, but some owners require 1st & last month's rent + a month's security. So if you need to move money into a checking account for availability or a family member is helping out, this is the time to take care of those things.
