  • Moving to the OKC area
    I dont know what your skills and experience levels are, but Target and Costco pay over $15 an hr, also Hobby Lobby. Pricewise you could be as low as $800 or so up to whatever really, depends on a lot of factors, what part of town do you want to be in or what do you want to be near, nightlife/restaurant high activity parts of town or more suburby/residential, near the college campus, etc. I'd say just go to...

  • Lease Termination
    I did use htpads.c which helped with rentals as well as Zillo and apartments.com some places waved the realtor fee but none that I was personally looking at. I am noticing that there are a lot of rights for tenants if you look around. I wish you the best and hope you could find a place within the anticipated time. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What condos are good for rent near downtown?
    I'm looking via hotpads.com, but if there's a better way to discover condos, please let me know! :). Source: over 1 year ago
  • how do i find a place that doesnt require my income to be 3x the rent? i live in maryland, and ik that i could budget a place up to 1.2k, as well as utilities and leftover disposable income. everywhere online requires rent to only be 1/3 of ur income though and there's literally nowhere that cheap
    Look for small private landlords instead of big buildings. Condos, small apartment buildings, basement apartments, that kind of thing. Sometimes they won't have that policy at all, or if they do you might be able to talk to them about being flexible on it, maybe giving them something else to prove that you're responsible. I'm in DC so I know the struggle. I've found things like this on hotpads.com, craigslist, and... Source: over 1 year ago

    First suggestions is to call local apartment buildings in your area to see about vacancy. Other places were vacant apartments may be is rent.com, apartments.com, and zillow.com. If you need to rent two rooms in a house for the time being you can try hotpads.com, roomster.com, and spareroom.com.

  • Move to toronto
    I would look on realtor.ca or an easier user interface would be condos.ca. Then look at walkscore.com at that point if you don't see a match for price and size to amenity, you'll know what the landscape is best. Source: 10 months ago
  • Could I survive in GR without a car until next spring?
    It depends on what neighborhood. If you're just going off of walkscore.com, etc, even though the city itself only gets a 56, many neighborhood are in the mid-high 80s. (East hills, Eastown, Midtown, etc). Source: 11 months ago
  • Family tired of the suburbs, thinking of moving to the city
    Perhaps look at walkscore.com also to assess the areas you are considering. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Is the Pearl District Safe?
    Keep in mind that those top 10 types of lists are driven by advertisers and are highly subjective. If finances are a consideration, there are MANY very walkable neighborhoods that are far lower cost of living. Use walkscore.com as a starting point. Source: about 1 year ago
  • LA Times Column: California’s population is on the decline, and high-income earners have joined the exodus
    Not owning a car really helped me save enough to buy a house in an old streetcar district. The weather is (usually) great so most trips are made via transit or bike. We're still car-free in our mid-50s. Try walkscore.com to find neighborhoods over 80. Ours gets a 91. Source: about 1 year ago
