Stop Losing Money on Denials You're not unhousable. You need someone who already knows which doors are open. ### "I've already been denied at 3 places." Each denial costs about $50 to $85 in nonrefundable fees. We check your fit first so you only spend money where approval is realistic. ### "I don't even know what's on my record." Most renters apply blind. We help you read your tenant file, tell an eviction filing from a judgment, and show your situation in the best light. ### "I need to move this week."

We've helped many DFW renters find a place. **North Arlington** is the entertainment district side of the city. It's home to **AT&T Stadium** and **Globe Life Field** near **Ballpark Way** and Collins Street. The **University of Texas at Arlington** and **River Legacy Park** are the two big draws away from the stadiums. Most apartments here are Class A and upper Class B: garden style communities, mid rise complexes, and gated properties. Newer buildings run by big management companies sit along **I-30** and **SH-360**. They usually offer other ways to get approved instead of a flat no. Our TREC licensed team tracks which communities along the **Collins Street Corridor** and **Entertainment District** are approving renters with credit problems right now. Getting approved here depends on how the big management companies run things. Newer communities near the stadiums run your file through screening software like SafeRent and RealPage. But they still offer other options, like deposit programs and guarantor services such as OneApp or TheGuarantors. Those can get you into buildings that would turn you down on credit score alone. With so many relocations and event jobs in this part of Arlington, leasing offices see all kinds of income. They're more open to bank statements, 1099 pay, and renters from out of state with no Texas rental history. The **UT Arlington Campus Area** sits close by. Communities near campus are used to thin credit files, so standards can be looser along the **Division Street Corridor**. Maybe your credit score is in the 500s, you have a broken lease, or your income doesn't fit a standard W-2 check. Either way, we check your situation against the rules Tarrant County communities use now, before you spend a dollar on application fees. Newer Class A buildings here have clearer ways to get approved than value Class B areas around DFW. A guarantor program is often what gets you into a community that would otherwise say no. Looking for bad credit apartments near you in North Arlington? Most clients get their list within 24 to 48 hours on weekdays. Every North Arlington search starts with the database we keep on each community. It covers credit minimums, how they handle evictions, what income proof they want, and how far back the background check goes. You get a short list of places that fit your credit, rental history and income before you pay a single application fee. ![Illustration of a locator going over screening rules with a renter](/images/features/locator-with-renter-reviewing-screening-criteria-d.webp) ## Neighborhoods we cover in North Arlington Entertainment DistrictUT Arlington Campus AreaCollins Street CorridorDivision Street CorridorRiver Legacy Park AreaBallpark Way AreaGreat Southwest Parkway AreaWest I-30 Corridor Nearby areas and landmarks AT&T StadiumGlobe Life FieldTexas Live!University of Texas at ArlingtonRiver Legacy Park ## North Arlington on the map ## Bad Credit Apartment FAQs for North Arlington Renters Quick answers to what most second chance renters ask about finding housing here. ### Which North Arlington apartments accept bad credit? A guarantor service like OneApp or TheGuarantors, or a higher deposit, helps a lot. Communities run by big management companies near the stadiums and UT Arlington have approved second chance renters. We check your file against what Tarrant County communities are approving now and send you a list within 24 to 48 hours on weekdays. ### Are there bad credit apartments near AT&T Stadium or Globe Life Field? Yes. Several communities near Ballpark Way and along Division Street near the entertainment district work with renters who have credit problems. They use guarantor programs or higher deposits. With so many event and stadium jobs nearby, leasing offices here see more kinds of income than offices in mostly residential areas do. We track which communities near AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field are approving second chance applications right now and what each one asks for. ### What do North Arlington apartments cost in 2026 if my credit is bad? With credit problems, plan on an extra deposit of one to two months' rent or a guarantor service like OneApp or TheGuarantors. With so many new apartments in the DFW suburbs, some communities have free rent weeks and waived fees right now. We point out current specials when we build your list. ### How are North and South Arlington different for second chance renters? North Arlington is the entertainment district side, with AT&T Stadium, Globe Life Field, and UT Arlington. South Arlington has more older value Class B and C buildings. Up north, big management companies run most buildings and offer options like guarantor programs. Down south, more independent landlords review each file by hand. Both sides have second chance options, but how you get approved can be very different. ### Can I use a guarantor to rent in North Arlington with low credit? Many Class A and B communities near the entertainment district and along SH-360 use guarantor programs like OneApp, TheGuarantors, or CoSign. These stand in for a co-signer or a higher deposit. For a fee, these services back your lease, which can get you approved at buildings that would turn you down on credit alone. We can tell you which communities have these programs running and walk you through the application. Our service is 100% free to you. ### How do I stop losing application fees on apartment denials? Stop applying blind. Each DFW application costs about $50 to $85 in nonrefundable fees. We check your profile against each community's real screening rules: credit cutoffs, how far back they look at evictions, and how much income they want. That way you only apply where approval is realistic. ### Is your apartment locating service free for renters? Yes, 100% free. The apartment community pays our locator fee when you sign the lease. You never pay us a dollar for the consultation, the list, or at move-in. Our agents hold TREC licenses under a real brokerage, and a licensed broker stands behind every lease we help with. ## Nearby areas we serve ### [HurstHurst sits on the west side of the HEB Mid-Cities.
