I'm looking for a inexpensive, yet nice apartment (I'm a student) in Manhattan to rent starting in like June, any ideas what neighborhoods too look in, or websites to drop in on. I'm from southern Connecticut, so I know New York very well.
Tinpot APARTMENT IN NYC? Good Luck!
If you know New York very well, as you stated, you'll notice there is nothing really for a song in Manhattan.
Your best bet would be a Roommate situation....Maybe renting a Large Rent Controled Apt, close to being Downtown Riverside Drive with a 'few' other Students.
Otherwise, I'd suggest, Bronx, (Bronx may be too out-of-the-way) Brooklyn or Queens & COMMUTE!

How Can I Found An Apartment To Rent In Manhattan Without Paying A Broker Fee?

When I search on craigslist it seems to be that everyone is a middleman or trying to charge a fee.
If you already get along in the City (or real close) you've got a chance...if your relocating from outside the area...I got be honest...it's a extensive shot. It's hard EVEN W/ A BROKER!!!
If you're in the City...you gotta network like crazy...ask everyone you be sure, put your own ad on CL, put posters up in coffee shops, pizza places, etc. Also look in places other the CL...try the Voice, the Post, the Times, the Common News...
If you're relocating you may want to consider a roommate situation (where they already have the apartment) until you get settled and can find your own place.
Lastly don't be apprehensive to work w/ a broker...ask questions...look at some rentals...learn what you can. Some brokers will allow for a bit of deal regarding their fees... this will only work if you make good money (150+K) ...have a brawny rental history and impeccable credit...in other words...if you don't need a broker.
It's worth every bit of deed you will put into it...NYC's the place to be!! Happy Hunting!!
