Apartment List VS Rent.com

I make $2,000 per month after tax, healthcare and 401K. I pay car insurance, private student loans (and federal will come due soon), phone bill, gas and a gym membership, totaling $1,140 / month. This leaves me with $860. The usual standard is 30% of my income ($800 max) which, according to apartmentlist.com for a 1/1, does not exist in my state. Looking at Zillow, I can confirm this. Cheapest 1/1 apartment is... Source: 10 months ago

"Shelter" which is comprised of "Rent" and "Owners Equivalent Rent" (OER) has a 35% weighting in the headline CPI number - higher in the Core CPI number. In May, the BLS reported YoY Shelter inflation of +8.0% which was comprised of +8.7% on Rent and +8.0% on OER. Alternatively, Zillow reported that average home prices are only up +2.0% and Redfin is saying that they're down -1.0%. ApartmentList.com said that rent... Source: 10 months ago

The apartment database sites (padmapper.com, apartmentlist.com, zeus, blueground etc) are apparently super unreliable and are scams, and the apartments I've found (Blackbird, Elise, Equity Residential, Grand Parc, etc) are apparently the same. The sites/buildings that I do hear relatively good things about (77H, Sonder, VRBO, AirBnb) are out of my price range (<$2200 for a studio) or aren't short-term enough (2... Source: 12 months ago

So I am a soon-to-be college graduate and am going to be moving to Minneapolis in June and have begun to look for apartments. Are there any recommendations for apartment complexes or places to live? For reference, I will be working close to the Cedar Hurst area. I found a couple of places like Hello apartments and Deco 265 apartments on apartmentlist.com but wasn't sure about anything yet.

Thanks for the suggestion! I've been looking on apartmentlist.com which seems a lot like apartments.com. Regardless, I'll check it out. Thanks again! Source: over 1 year ago

I'm finding a lot of 1000-1200 apartments on rent.com, I'm just not sure about the areas they are in. Like I said I used to live in Fox Chase and have been looking there but I am open to other areas. I just want to avoid places like Kensington and Nicetown-Tioga. Source: 5 months ago

Check rent.com and craigslist to see what the market is like for renting, redfin and zillow for housing market prices. Source: 10 months ago

I'd just look on craigslist, facebook, or rent.com if I were her. I got my apartment on craigslist and it's beautiful! Source: 10 months ago

In our market the MLS is a viable source of tenants along with Zillow. Zillow is good for marketing, not for valuation. Also use Apartments.com and rent.com and do not use craigslist at all. It's terrible for decent tenants here. Each market is different. Source: 10 months ago

I will be moving out of my home in early 2024 due to a pending divorce and I need to find a 1br1ba place or bigger. I have been checking CL recently to get an idea again what rent costs and I often cross check the price with zillow or rent.com, aparements.com as well. I often find the same place listed for quite a bit more on the other sites so Im thinking the CL ad is a scam. Are there legit rentals on CL that... Source: 10 months ago
