Military Vet Needing Housing in RDU

From an agent I work with in the Raleigh, NC area “Wanted to see if anyone knows of a rental property (3 or 4 bd/2bth) that would take on a family whose combined income is $7000+ a month. The problem is their credit is low in 500's so they are having a difficult time with the applications at many rentals.
The backstory is husband is a 10+ year Marine veteran injured in Iraq who retired due to those injuries and his wife had cancer the Military hospital was unable to care for his wife so to save her they took out massive loans for the medical bills.
My heart is hurting for this great family and I’m trying my best to help. I don’t really handle rentals so I’m hoping someone here can provide some info or a lead they can reach out to and find a home for their family.
Thanks Family!”

I know it’s a wild toss up but wanted to see if I could help my coworker find housing for this veteran who has given us the biggest sacrifice! Thank you everyone!

@Joseph Gisler When any is posting for a person needing a rental place, it's the same as looking for a house to buy----the more detailed the "rent box", the better. Without knowing the geography, the price/rent range, length of rental, any special needs (ex. fenced backyard), the person looking will likely not get any responses.
