Mar 17, 2007 by starspotlight1985 | Posted in New York City
I am poignant to Manhattan at the end of the summer and looking at apartments. I know I can't seriously look until a month or less before the move. I have searched Craigslist. Are there any other sites that I could search? Thanks!
Manhattan for under 1350? You dont be to live in a nice apartment or a nice neighborhood do you? That really is a serious answer too. If you want the most bang for your buck, at out apartments in the park slope section of brooklyn. You'll get alot more space and cheaper rents, along with a mastery neighborhood for what you'll pay for a shoebox in Manhattan. And its a short commute to Anywhere in Manhattan.

How Can I Find A Great Affordable Manhattan Apartment?
May 13, 2007 by cabindweller | Posted in New York City
Are there information particularly websites, magazines or newspapers that have the best listings? Will I have to go through a broker/pay a broker fee? How long should I pattern to look? Any other tips?
Affordable = $2500 or less per month. Not looking for the deal of the century in other words - but a keen, liveable place with hardwood floors, decent light, etc. I know parts of Brooklyn are purposeful (and I used to live there) but since we are moving to NYC to experience the CITY (for a year or so only), it wouldn't make much since to not conclude in the middle of everything.
Well that is an oxymoron, you will have a sick chance of winning the lottery or being struck by lightening than getting a great, affordable Manhattan apartment. However, appropriate apartments can be had as long as you're flexible. Craigslist will be your best bet from afar, particularly if you are looking to get a roommate or sublet. You will credible pay a fee regardless, whether it is a broker's fee, application fee, or some other name. You look until you find an apartment. Depending on what your circumstances are most people initially find roommates in New York until they get settled with a job and an clue of where they might like to live and decide that living here is what you want to do. On average a roommate/share in Manhattan will set someone back you at least $800 and a studio will easily go for $1600-24000. You would be hard pressed to find a one bedroom for under $2000. This assay gets lower if you look in Brooklyn and Queens which is what a lot of people do. There are many scams out there of companies that hint at to send you "listings" for a fee but never get anyone any apartments so beware of great offers or promises. That being said, New York offers some quirky proper estate. Sometimes you will find unique living arrangements from people who travel a lot that may rent you the living accommodation of an apartment and keep the bedroom for themselves but they only use the aprtment 1 week a month or something to that effect. Get creative. I lived in an apartment with a few roommates indubitably cheaply because it was a railroad flat so you had to walk through one room to get to another (no privacy). Another had the shower in the kitchen. These apartments are becoming more and more rare as the customer acceptance wanted for real estate provides an incentive for landlords to improve their units and charge very acme prices. Unless you are a Rockefeller you should be trying to tell everyone you know in New York that you are trying to find an apartment here as parley of mouth offers the greatest deals in apartments here. If your university has an alumni chapter here go b investigate them out for tips, likewise if your current job has a branch or office here. It takes a bit of patience, fortitude and good break. You should also be prepared to pay first, last, and security deposit plus a brokers fee so you are looking at needing the equivalent of four months up front in fairness off the bat. Plus unless you have a great job where you are making major dough you will probably need a guarantor to cosign a sublease out if you get your own apartment, typically you need to prove and annual income of 40 times one month's rip, so if it is 2000 a month you need an income of $80,000 a year to secure it. My advice would be to probe Craigslist for a roommate.
Good luck!
