Open Question: How to better our chances of someone choosing us to occupy their house up for lease? Tips or suggestions? HELP?

We live in an area where homes for rent are very few for some reason and it is VERY hard to get into anything because of all the other ppl looking for rentals. Population for the 15 mile radius is about 100,000+ so it’s pretty tough. Our first issue is pets. We have 2 tiny chihuahuas and a medium sized dog. They’re great dogs and are potty trained – how do we convince ppl that they do not need to worry? We are expecting our son next month and are going to be forced to rent becuase the building on our house has taken much longer than promised.How do we convince someone that we are a great choice? When in all honesty we really are. We dont party, our income is at about $100k a year, my husbands credit is average but mine is great. We are early to mid 20′s.Another problem – a lot of places want references. He rented his sisters place for years while she was away at college and I dont know if they will look at that as a very reliable reference, you know? My problem – My ex bf bought a house and I helped pay the mortgage although I wasn’t a purchaser of the home. I absolutely despise him and he pretty much wants to murder my husband (for some unknown reason lol) so that reference is out the window as well.Help??!!
