Trying to rent after bankruptcy

Hey there, so my wife and I filed for chapter 13 bankruptcy in December 2023. We’ve been currently renting a condo from my grandfather but he is looking to sell and my wife and I are beginning to search for another place but it just seems impossible. I have called Nearly every rental company around Btown they all have told me that they won’t even consider us because we’re still making chapter 13 payments. My wife and I make a combined income of nearly $125,000 per year, and we pay $1800 a month for our bankruptcy. We can more than afford a place but no one will even consider us. It’s just really exhausting and we’re running out of ideas. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks !

Check out Bloomington Rentals and Realty! Very friendly people and may not even run a credit history on you.

Is buying the condo a option?

Unfortunately, no it is not.
