  • Any popular apartment buildings to stay away from?
    Go to rent.com, trulia.com, and try to rent from a person who owns their apartment/condo vs. Renting from a management company. The owner may use rental management, but they are the ones to call the shots and ultimately make final decisions. Got lucky renting a 1-bedroom condo in Uptown from the owner who is extremely flexible and always on top of repairs/issues. Any bad experiences I had were always at rental... - Source: Reddit / 4 days ago
  • Good online sources for rentals in the Bay
    Try trulia.com rentals or zillow.com rentals too. It used to be that everything was on craigslist, but that was decades ago. Also, many properties that are listed on craigslist and managed by a property management company get listed once they don't have much interest via the property management company website itself. Get the property management company names from the craigslist ads and then go directly to their... - Source: Reddit / 10 days ago
  • Local places to advertise townhouse for sale?
    The most powerful advertising around for real estate is the MLS, and the MLS gets replicated to realtor.com, zillow.com, trulia.com, redfin.com. 97%+ of all transactions start on one of those. If you're not getting traction on those platforms, paying for print ads isn't going to improve your situation. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Leaving with nowhere to go.
    Try rent.com, trulia.com, zillow.com, and like a million others. Facebook, too, and for work. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • adding another buyer onto my Trulia account
    Spouse and I want to buy, and we are looking at listings online separately. Is there a way to alert one another about a prospective property once one of us adds one as a favorite on trulia.com? (kinda like Amazon "add to list"?) We tried using the same username and password on the other device, but the app doesn't accept it (too many wrong attempts?) and it doesn't work! - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Cheap 1 Bed/ Studio Opinions!!
    You can find places that rent by the room, where you'll most likely be sharing a house or apartment with a few other people, sometimes other students, sometimes just people that are already working in their field. Don't bother checking apartments.com or trulia.com or any of that, which is just a bunch of expensive housing and nothing really by individual owners. If you live in the area, I recommend walking around... - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • SCAM ALERT: "Access Point" listings on Zillow, Craigslist, etc.
    Searching "85 3rd St. APT 3, Cambridge, MA 02141" brings up no historical realtor.com, trulia.com, etc. Pages of the unit. There are pages on those websites for this unit, but the page was created/updated on the same day that the unit was listed on Zillow/Craigslist, making me think the scammer is trying to cover their tracks and bring some evidence on to their side that the unit is accurately represented. - Source: Reddit / 6 months ago
  • How To Find An Apartment??
    I am moving to Miami and am searching for an apartment for a September 1 lease date. Are there any sites you recommend to help with my search? I'm using apartments.com and trulia.com. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • Ask HN: If I build it, will you pay? (CRM for home buyers)
    - create stand alone folders of pictures of each property and label them properly -------- First step: The free browser extension To ease the burden a bit , I quickly created an extension that calculates your home loan repayments on the go while browsing real estate listings. I don’t know about you but seeing on a listing that a particular property will cost approximately for example $650 per week helps me better... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • Anyone else feel like getting information out of apartment management companies about listings is like pulling teeth?
    Lots of aggregate sites like apartments.com, trulia.com are in the business of selling ads and your data. Its not that important to them that the information they provide is accurate or up to date in order to meet their business goals. - Source: Reddit / 9 months ago
  • Anyone familiar with the Barbecue NC Area (just south of Sanford)? Is it safe?
    Trulia.com gives a crime index for almost anywhere. Some places are less troublesome than others. - Source: Reddit / 12 months ago
  • Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
    I have been working on a browser extension that calculates your mortgage repayments while browsing home listings on https://trulia.com or https://zillow.com or https://domain.com.au or https://realestate.com.au The expectation was to learn how to create a browser extension. Since its been released, I have had a few hundred users consistently using the extension for the last 3 months, so I am planning to add more... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

    Brother, I've been looking at houses on trulia.com waiting for OPEX drop just to buy calls at ATH for the weeks after. We are going to be rich. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Another moving question-coast guard member seeking advice
    You can look for rentals/homes for sale at apartments.com, trulia.com, zillow.com, craigslist.com and I'm sure there are others. It's unlikely you'll be able to buy a house anywhere near to where you work unless you have a substantial down payment saved up. Housing here is expensive. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Safest areas to live
    In general, yes. If you want to be sure about the area you are moving into, you can use Trulia (which has crime maps for the apartment you are looking at), or the Chicago Data Portal, which has crime data. trulia.com and https://data.cityofchicago.org/Public-Safety/Crimes-Map/dfnk-7re6. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago

  • Am I paying too much to rent out a room?
    I really wasn't asking you to tell me where you live so I can do the work for you. I was suggesting you look around yourself and see what rent is like in your area. There's a ton of sites. Apartments.com, rent.com, trulia.com, craigslist.org, among others. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
