Dad added me as an authorized user to his credit card so I can get my credit score up to 750 so I can meet the criteria for very low income housing.

As very low income housing, the 30% AMI units where the city gives tax breaks to housing developers if they build units that rent to people that make under $22,000 annual income or 30% of the AMI require a 750 credit score and my credit score is only 724, then I have to get it up 26 points so I can qualify for very low income housing.

I have good credit a 100% payment history on my report and my credit is too bad for very low income housing units. I'm about to just get a mortgage and buy a house instead.

Now since I was denied for very low income housing based on credit for having good instead of excellent credit, I have to wait for 3 more years up a waitlist.

750 is a ridiculous credit score for low income animals renters.

The average poor has a terrible credit score or no history at all.

Seems like a shitty grift from developers to milk the city and then say "oh we're at 5% occupancy"

You should complain to city council, seriously. Real estate developer welfare is fricking gross and they deserve the wall

Honestly, the city council kind of suckpuppets on the city subreddit with a bunch of alts demonizing and making up fake stories about homeless people smearing shit all over the walls and defending the actions of bad landlords and housing developers.

They all kind of brigade together to control the narrarative.

Reporting it the city council won't do much.

I mean I can believe tenants destroy houses, but housing developers are some of the worst rent-seeking fricks in the world.
