By now you know that your credit score can have a big impact on your life—like when you want to finance a big purchase such as a house, or when you’re looking for a new rental. You can expect your potential landlord to run a credit check and, as a general rule, you will need a score of 620 or higher to rent an apartment.

But credit reports can, on occasion, contain errors—and those errors can derail your apartment search when a landlord gives you a hard pass as a tenant.

“Credit report errors are actually common,” says David Bitton, co-founder of and chief marketing officer of DoorLoop, a property management software. “In fact, at least 1 in 5 people can encounter an error in any of their credit reports.”

Apartment hunting is hard enough, especially if you live in an area where desirable properties get snatched up at a moment’s notice. The last thing you need is to lose out on a rental because of errors on your credit report. But knowing what to look out for can get you back on level playing field. Read on for more information about credit score errors.

While winter is generally a slow time for real estate as homebuyers hunker down and wait for spring, certain cities—and in fact, one entire state—are defying those odds.

The Realtor.com® Hottest Markets List for January has ranked Manchester, NH (a more affordable alternative to Boston, about an hour away), No. 1 for the 18th time in the past two years. Coming in second was Rochester, NY, on the shores of Lake Ontario. Neither of these metros is much of a surprise, given they’ve lingered near the top of this list many times in the past.

But the No. 3 hottest market—Columbus, OH—is where things get interesting. Why? Because it’s just one of five cities in Ohio that made January’s top 20. That’s a whole lot of Buckeye State property people are snapping up!

(The rankings factor in a combination of demand—measured by the number of unique views per home listing—and how quickly homes are selling in that market.)

The day I planned to close on an acre lot where I hoped to build a brand-new house, my real estate agent turned up a deed restriction that limited the number of garages I could construct. I had intended to build three, but according to the deed, I could have only two.

This seems like the ultimate First World problem, I know. But it was the first deed restriction I, as a new developer, had encountered, and I didn’t understand why this rule had come out of nowhere to block my progress on land I was paying good money for.

As it turned out, the restriction was more than 50 years old and created by a neighborhood association that had long ago ceased to exist—and therefore couldn’t enforce it. I ended up closing the deal, but I had to consider all the dreamy-eyed buyers who longed to build their own home and were thwarted by rules—archaic or not.

And here’s the rub: Deed restrictions and deed-restricted communities affect more than would-be home builders. Homeowners can be restricted by anything from the number of bedrooms in a house to the types of vehicles in the driveway. It’s best to know about deed restrictions before you buy, so let’s take a look at what they’re all about.
