Happy 2009! In the spirit of resolutions and change that comes with a new year let me encourage you all to get out there and find your dream apartment.I just recently started investigating this and have found that the downturn of the economy means a drop in rental prices for Manhattan. So that sweet one bedroom in the village you've had your eye on may actually be in your price range....Awesome right?
I highly recommend Street Easy, a site that's great for buying/renting apartments in NYC that allows you to find real no-fee housing and you can check out how long a property has been on the market to help with your negotiations. Plus there's a great section called "Talk" where people give and seek advice on renter/buyer issues.
Also No Fee Rentals is good for finding places that don't have a hefty broker fee, as well as ol' faithful, Craigslist.
Once you find your dream apartment/condo, check out the free ferry to Ikea in Red Hook to stock up some sweet swedish furnishings.
Now get Moving!
