Apartments.com VS ForRent.com

I'd say start searching now because you never know what you'll be able to find, try apartments.com, Facebook Marketplace, maybe Craigslist if you're brave, and I found a site called roomies.com where you can find rooms and connect with like minded people also searching. I found my place quick; My employer let me know I got the job around 2 weeks before the start date, I found my current place within a week on... Source: 5 months ago

Even if you aren't renting, I'd look for places using apartments.com commute distance feature. All roads in NJ are not created equal.

I've been looking for an apartment in manhattan, mainly using streeteasy but recently came across a site called forrent.com. The apartments look great and the prices are even better, but after doing some brief googling on the site I found some reviews on https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.forrent.com that seem to indicate it's a scam. Has anyone used this service lately and had positive or negative experiences? Source: almost 2 years ago
