I know people want to minimize their risk, but there is a reasonable limit. I'm sure grocery stores would be thrilled to check your name against a registry of shoplifters before letting you in, but is it really in anyone's interest to have fellow citizens restricted from buying food? I think not. Shelter is just as important.</p> http://gothamist.com/2004/07/14/renting_with_bad_credit.php#comment-27036 http://gothamist.com/2004/07/14/renting_with_bad_credit.php#comment-27036 Comments Thu, 15 Jul 2004 15:14:35 -0500 <p>Good to know - I've always wondered about this after I read some NY Times Habitats column about a couple with this exact issue - everything worked out fine inthe end.</p>
