Have you tried looking into student housing that rent by the room? They are more forgiving and understanding of a situation like yours and more affordable rental rates. Maybe even sliding scale complexes familiar with disability residents? My comment might get deleted if I mention the next part but there are paystub generator websites if you don't want to try payroll software specifically like quickbooks.

You just have to make sure the numbers are correct for taxes unless you set it up like a 1099 contract employee where no taxes are removed from a paycheck and you are expected to file later. Also have to make sure the phone number for them to call the business to verify employ goes to someone who will handle the call for you (if landlords calls to check).
