Looking To Move Anywhere From NYC Before End of June With No Credit
23 year old male, with $30,000 in savings, was going to school but my family’s moving out of the country. My grandmother is in her last stages of Alzheimer’s so my family secured a location in her home country to reside at for a couple of years.
They get a lump sum every year without employment so they’re not necessarily worried about finances. Neither am I as a result of this, as the savings altogether is a lot more. But because of this I’ve never really bothered to grow my credit which may have bitten me in the ass.
The degree I was aiming for wasn’t financially viable, it was just supposed to be fulfilling. I have 2 more years to complete it but the sudden shift puts me in a pickle. I rather put my career on pause and find a place to move to than find a roommate in NYC especially because my family wants me to move some of the furniture to this future location.
I also own a cat which complicates things.
About me:
-23 year old male
-30k in savings
-No Credit
-Looking for a place that’s 1366 a month or less.

Am I completely screwed? I’m not willing to move out of the U.S. Worst case scenario I’ll just stay homeless or something, I don’t really have any big aspirations for myself. I’ve never really had a job either, my family owned a business in NYC but I worked there off the books. The business also ruined their credit as my mother’s brother likely committed fraud and that’s an ongoing issue they’re trying to resolve. Not that it really mattered, at the beginning of the year, my family gets a ridiculous sum of money due to a lawsuit we won. About 200k a year (hence why I said finances aren’t really a worry).

Any advice? I feel stuck. Been searching since April and places are looking for 2.5x the rent in states where the minimum wage is significantly less than that. I feel insane.
