agree.....
I had the same situation when I changed from student status to work status, need to pay couple of months rent (normally 6 months but can be varied depends on your contract) in advance if you couldn't prove your future income despite how much $ in your bank account.
If you can pay $ in advance, there are no reason agent to decline your application as they can made $ from you --> your credit check can be easily passed (they only check your historical address / no convictions or liabilities)
Personally (I guess most ppl here have the same experience), I think renting a place from agent could dreadful / expensive !!! If you can get a place from university or college, or even from gumtree, DO NOT go for agents.
good luck, mate
谢谢 但是GUMTREE 怕遇到不好的房东直接扣押金投诉没门,才想着找中介心里踏实些。。。。。。。。。
