Vision Credit Education, Inc.

(Raleigh, NC) The next Ready to Rent workshop series at the South Wilmington Street Center will be held Monday, April 20, 2009. This event is scheduled for the men that utilize services at the South Wilmington Street Center and is not restricted to residents.

In partnership with the Supportive Housing Program of Wake County Human Services, Vision Credit will be providing a 3-hour credit improvement workshop at the South Wilmington Street Center. This is one of four workshops that completes the Ready to Rent workshop series.

Participants wil learn about landlord and tenant rights and responsibilities. In addition, budgeting and savings will be discussed so that prospective tenants understand what rent payments they can afford given the approximate utilities payments and other expenses that they are responsible for.

We will delve into the complexities of credit scoring. Find out how some changes can have a positive impact on your credit scores, which could help you gain approval for an apartment rental.
