Moving to NYC this summer, making 40x rent for most places but don't have any credit score (non US citizen).

Any tips on how to avoid expensive gurantors?

You probably can’t. Try renting from a smaller independent landlord or individual person like a two family house or brownstone, as opposed to a corporate conglomerate large building

How does the guarantor process work?

I’m trying to buy my first house and my wife and I have a few IRAs from previous employers (Roth and non Roth).

Anyone know how true this is, how the process works, or have any advice? Is it a good idea

Is this legal?
My partner and I are moving out of our condo building in NYC at month end, and the building management (not our landlord) has communicated to us that, on top of the 1K non-refundable fee and 1K security deposit to move out (stated in lease), they are also issuing a $1,250 "sanitization fee" for the public areas (hallways/elevators), since we happen to be moving out during COVID19. We feel this is taking advantage of tenants during this time and may not be legal. Any advice helps!
