i see that many apartments in the paper are listed with a realtor. can i go into a realtor and tell them what im looking for and have them look for me like i would if i were buying a home? if i can do this does anyone suggest anyone in particular?

Re: nwr apartments question
Are you looking to rent or buy an apt? If you're looking to rent I would try first not using a realtor because there is a fee you have to pay them. It's usually a % of the first year rent. It can be a lot, particularly if you're looking in Manhattan.

Re: nwr apartments question
Check the NYTIMES and NEWSDAY for apts listed by the owners..
I know you will find something..
MY gf just rented an apt 2 bedroom in North Bellmore ( No idea where this is) and she is paying 850....
She found it in Newsday!
Good luck!

Re: nwr apartments question
Yes, at first we were looking to rent and then decided to buy but some realtors asked us for 2 months rent as a finders fee, if your rent is a lot of money or even if it is under $1000 twice that is a pretty big chunck of change.
