Second Chance Leasing in Las Vegas
A rough rental history doesn\u2019t have to follow you forever. We place hundreds of second chance tenants every year \u2014 no judgement, real approvals.
Evictions OK
Prior eviction on your record? Not a dealbreaker. We look at the whole story — income, timing, circumstances.
Broken leases welcome
Life happens. Job loss, medical emergency, relationship changes. A broken lease won’t stop your application.
All credit situations
We weigh income and stability over credit scores. Bad credit, no credit, recent bankruptcy — we’ll talk.
What we actually look at
Most big apartment complexes run a credit score and auto-reject. We\u2019re not them. Here\u2019s what matters to us.
Current income
Pay stubs, offer letter, voucher, or proof of any stable income.
Employment stability
How long at your current job, or if you’re newly employed we’ll talk.
Rental history context
Not just the record — the story. When, why, what’s changed.
How you handle the conversation
Honest about your situation? Willing to communicate? Huge plus.

Our second chance properties
Broken lease vs. eviction — both welcome
Corporate screening software treats these two very differently. We treat both as context, not a verdict.
Broken lease
You left before the lease term ended — a job relocation, a breakup, a medical situation, or a landlord you couldn’t keep dealing with. It may show as a balance in collections or a note from a prior property.
We look for second chance apartments that accept broken leases the way you’d hope: what happened, whether it’s resolved, and how stable things are now. Documentation helps but isn’t required to start.
Eviction
A formal court eviction (an unlawful detainer filing in Nevada) stays visible on tenant-screening reports for years and is what most big complexes auto-reject on.
We’re second chance apartments that accept evictions in Las Vegas: we weigh the reason, how long ago it was, and your current income instead of stopping at the record. If it’s on your report because of a dispute or error, our guide on how to dispute an eviction record in Nevada walks through your options.

How second chance approval works
Four simple steps. No screening algorithm deciding your future before a human ever sees it.
Apply or call
Submit the online application or call (702) 820‑5089. It’s $50 per adult, and no application fee if you hold a Section 8 voucher.
Tell us the real story
If you have a prior eviction, broken lease, or thin credit, say so up front. Context helps us — it doesn’t hurt you.
Show income and ID
Photo ID plus proof of income around 2.5–3× the rent. Section 8, SSI/SSDI, VA benefits, and self-employment income all count.
Sign and move in
Once documents are in and the unit is ready, most second chance applicants sign and move in within a few days. Section 8 adds inspection time (1–3 weeks).
What to bring to speed up approval
Have these ready and we can usually give you a straight answer fast.
Photo ID
A current government-issued ID for each adult on the lease.
Proof of income
Recent pay stubs, an offer letter, benefit award letter, or Section 8 voucher paperwork.
Rental history context
Anything that explains a past eviction or broken lease — even a short written note helps.
Deposit readiness
The security deposit is one month’s rent and negotiable; being ready to place it speeds things up.

Second chance leasing \u2014 FAQ
Do you accept tenants with a prior eviction?
Yes. Vegas Value Living offers second chance leasing at both Maryland Park and Bonanza Park. A prior eviction on your record is not a dealbreaker. We look at the full picture: current income, reason for the eviction, and time since.
Are these second chance apartments that accept evictions in Las Vegas, NV?
Yes — both of our Las Vegas properties are second chance apartments that accept evictions. Maryland Park (89101, near downtown) and Bonanza Park (89106, west Las Vegas) both review applicants with a prior eviction in context instead of auto-rejecting on a screening report. If you have an eviction on your record and steady income around 2.5–3× the rent, apply and we’ll talk.
Do you have 2nd chance apartments that accept broken leases?
Yes. A broken lease is one of the most common things we see, and it won’t block your application at either property. If you have paperwork explaining the situation — job loss, medical emergency, a move for work — bring it, but we’ll have the conversation either way.
What about a broken lease on my record?
Broken leases are common and we work with applicants who have one. Bring documentation if you can — medical emergency, job loss, domestic issue — but even without it we’ll have a conversation.
Do you accept bad credit or no credit?
Yes. We work with all credit situations. We weigh income, employment stability, and rental references more heavily than a credit score. If you’re working and can cover rent, we want to help.
What do I need to qualify for second chance leasing?
Three things: photo ID, proof of stable income (pay stubs, offer letter, or voucher), and a willingness to talk honestly about your rental history. We don’t judge — we place hundreds of second chance tenants every year.
Is the security deposit higher for second chance tenants?
The standard security deposit is one month’s rent and it’s negotiable. In some cases we ask for a slightly larger deposit depending on the situation, but it’s case-by-case. Section 8 voucher holders have different rules — ask us.
How fast can I move in?
For most second chance applicants, once we have your documents and the unit is ready, you can sign a lease and move in within a few days. Section 8 adds inspection time (1–3 weeks).
Will you run a background check?
We run a basic background check. We care more about recent, stable behavior than a clean record. Felonies aren’t automatic denials — we look at the offense and how long ago it was.
Do I need a second chance apartment locator to find you?
No. Some renters pay second chance apartment locators to shortlist places that accept evictions or broken leases in Las Vegas — you don’t need one to apply with us. We’re owner-operated with no broker or locator fees. Apply directly online or call and you’re talking to the people who actually make the decision.
How does the deposit and application fee work for second chance tenants?
The application fee is $50 per adult, and there’s no application fee for Section 8 voucher holders. The security deposit is one month’s rent and is negotiable; in some second chance cases we may ask for a slightly larger deposit depending on the situation. Income requirement is roughly 2.5–3× the monthly rent, and Section 8, SSI/SSDI, VA benefits, and self-employment income all count.
