You shouldn’t have to suffer through unhappy apartment hunting with a treasure trove of resources out there to help you through the process. We spent some time sorting through the best rental websites so you know where to look.
At this point, it’s basically common law that finding an apartment cannot be easy. Whether it’s surprise fees loaded onto the final rent, or discovering (at the last minute) that the apartment you love is going to the super’s daughter, you have to be ready for a little disappointment before finding the perfect home. But, you shouldn’t have to suffer with a treasure trove of resources out there to help you through the process. We spent some time sorting through the best sites so you know where to look.
Trulia
Zillow
If you have a smartphone, the Zillow app is a great accessory to add to your apartment-hunting arsenal. This site sends instant notifications of the latest listings to you based on the search filters you have in place. That kind of speed is key in always-competitive real estate markets. Also, Zillow does a good job of providing photos for each listing and telling users which apartments are from ‘verified’ sources. Fair warning, we recommend you pay heed to the verification status as we’ve seen more than a few fake and/or expired listings floating around this site.
StreetEasy
This site is made for rental apartment hunters with extensive lists of properties available in your neighborhood of choice. The best part, though, are the search capabilities: StreetEasy has some of the best filters around, including ones that let you search for specific school districts, the time it takes to walk to individual subway lines, and it even lets you add boundaries to your search. Not to mention the Editors’ Picks where StreetEasy employees tell you what’s currently on their radar.
Craigslist
Then, of course, there’s Craigslist. In terms of sheer number, the classified site is great. (We doubt you’ll ever make it to the end of the pages returned from your search.) And, we’ve all heard a Craigslist success story: that friend who found a place for cheap in the West Village, or the co-worker who found a loft with no brokers’ fee in Williamsburg. But those stories, unfortunately, are few and far between. The site is filled with fake ads that are misleading or simply incorrect, so it certainly takes some digging (and even a little luck) to find that pot of gold at the end of the real estate rainbow.
Dixon Leasing
The Dixon Leasing website fuses together the best features of the tools above: providing the best (and latest) information on available rentals; neighborhood guides, so you know what area you’re exploring throughout NYC, Jersey City and Hoboken; and a personal connection with real people that you can call and ask questions; and, of course, a way of getting all of that information to you in a clear and coherent format.The search for your next home can be simpler than you think with the right tools on your side. That said, we welcome you to the Dixon Leasing website and look forward to helping you find your next home.
