How do/did you find a house to rent
Posted by wizard of smart on 4/25 at 12:17 pm
I haven't found the internet to be much use. Maybe I'm not looking at the right place. Do you drive around neighborhoods? I can't find much

When I was looking for a house to rent in San Antonio, I called a realtor. They do it for free for you because they get paid a finder's fee by the owner. Of course, it has to be MLS listed for the realtor to even know about it.

The House? In the garden district.

Where did I find it? A poster that I kind of knew IRL offered me his old place after he took a job somewhere else.

Ahh nevermind, that's where you found yours. I got confused. Maybe I should read the first post more often

Craigslist is the first place to look. You can weed out the scams easily. Next try the local newspaper. Driving around and looking for signs can work too, but most of those are listed on ads already.

If you have a good idea of where you want to live, I'd recommend this. I'm amazed by how many people just stick up a "for rent" sign and a phone number and wait.

try padmapper.com. they pull from craigslist and other apartment sites and map them by listed locations, plus you can filter by price, bedrooms, etc. I just discovered it today and it's pretty nice.

The best rental properties don't have to be advertised. They are usually filled by word of mouth or by putting a sign in the yard. Drive around the neighborhoods you are interested in living or talk to any friends you have in the area to see if they know of anyone renting a place.

Too many spammers on CL for me. I ended up driving around in areas I liked and looked for "for rent" signs. Worked out alright for me.
