judson Posted July 26 Report Share Posted July 26 Check out the Village Voice online. They post listings before they show up in print. Also, the New York Times is good sometimes.You will have more luck and get a better place if you look in Brooklyn too. It's a much better place to live than Manhattan.Above all, be prepared for a fight. Be decisive and jump on something the minute you like it, but don't jump on something because of desperation.good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicman Posted July 26 Report Share Posted July 26 Try:http://www.lootusa.com/Its the best classifieds newspaper in the city, it even has personals!And you could also look through the apartment/rommate locator services, a lot cheaper than a realtor. And Yahoo and stuff like that over the web. However, dont despair, its tough, but its worth the trouble.good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldoan Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Yeah,I suggest looking in the Village Voice. It'll be awfully hard to find a place and not have a brooker get involved. They pretty much have the market on lock-down and thats just the way real estate works up there. But like Judson said, try looking in Brooklyn right across the water. All my friends who have moved to NYC found a place in the Wiliamsburg section of Brooklyn. Try looking there. Happy hunting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its gonna be a bit tough without a broker, but shouldn't be impossible, especially if you're willing to live right across the river in Brooklyn. Good luck, and let me know how it goes.

vicman Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Williamsburg is where a lot of people are moving to, maybe the neighborhood needs a bit of work, but the young crowd is definitely there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
