If you know,by word of mouth,the inside scoop of nice ehrliche people looking to rent out a 3 bedroom apartment,rest of details not on public forum ,please post how I can obtain the info.
Regular channels have not led me to the right apt. yet.
Thank you.
Where would you like to rent?
Hmm let me speak to some of my people and I’ll get back to you. My people as in my friends/connections
eclipse…you should consider moving to montreal…
Price range?
I’m sure yossi’s friends are neither bugs nor roaches
Good luck! :-/
What? I have to speak to my people friends? But the roaches are the best informants, they’re everywhere! JK!
Don’t worry I have people friends too =D
(That was for the roach comment and wasn’t meant to be serious or have anything to do with what I said I’d do)
😀 Zuberman! 😀
eclipse,
There are online bulletin boards, i.e. Yahoo! shul email lists, that you should check out.

Are you willing to live in Boro Park?
(ask the Mods to send me your email)
…or think all single Moms are deadbeat tenants.
You mean they’re not? 😉
Seriously, if that’s an issue, try coming prepared with documentation proving income, and or assets, and or a guarantor.
Hatzlocha!
Eclipse: I wasn’t able to get information about any places but I was given a suggestion. Have you tried talking to a broker (I think that is what they are called) directly rather than looking at advertisements? I do believe there are brokers who deal specifically with C8

Sorry, I didnt see your post until now. Its at the end of Boro Park (bet 9th & 10th)
May I suggest that you be more “aggressive” and give assurances right away?
I didnt know you have section 8,
if you still need a place, my in-laws have an apt (that’s for section 8) but they don’t want to throw out their tenants yet
so if they do and you still need a place, i’ll keep you in mind (the tenants they have now brought bedbugs, and they themselves admit the apartment is too small for them so when they leave and my in-laws bomb the place we’ll be in touch)
and yes it’s in Flatbush
Btw how many kids do you have (my wife wants to know)
Eclipse: yeah it would probably help to have more than one broker on the case (just make sure there aren’t any schedule clashes)
😀 Zuberman! 😀
Eclipse: k, I will let my roach informants know and they will do their best to stay out of the way =D
😀 Zuberman! 😀
can someone tell me what section 8 is. is it bankruptcy??
POST EDITED
Please do not be intrusive.
And from what I’ve heard,once there are bugs,they always come back.
Even bedbugs? I’d double check that before I dismissed an otherwise acceptable place, especially since you’re having such a hard time.
Mbachur,thanks,but I can’t really answer that online,I’m sorry.And from what I’ve heard,once there are bugs,they always come back.I know this sounds funny–but I am more scared of bugs than people.
not if its bombed and cleaned thoroughly (I hope)
and I know what you mean abt being more scared of bugs than people, we were in a quality inn recently and before i even touched the matress i said we should check for bedbugs
and chayav,
section 8 is housing for families that can’t pay rent themselves so the gov’t subsidizes them
whoops forgot to sign (gonna take some getting used to)
:p> mbachur <d:
no prob
Eclipse: what I mean is even though you would be having two (or more depending) brokers working at the same time, I wouldn’t schedule more than one viewing at a time (per viewing not per broker). Now that I am thinking about it, if one broker doesn’t know about the other(s) what would happen if they showed you the same house? …
😀 Zuberman! 😀
Hatzlacha finding an apartment. Dont know anything realy about apartment searching though I do know it’s hard.
eclipse- would you be willing to move out of Brooklyn? I know of an apartment/ house and the landlord take section8. It’s a nice block, in a nice frum neighborhood in the Queens area. I don’t want to say anymore unless your interested…
Lakewood, Monsey, Queens, 5 Towns are all in-town!
Eclipse -I doubt it. I think Teaneck, Passaic, Highland Park, Deal are somewhere in between.
sac
you’re a Boro Parker? holy cow
if you dont have to bother the children, then you should rather not. it’s so hard for them to start again, from scatch. that’s my opionion. i mean friends and school and neighbors…. all in all stick to the same city if you could.
D.Y. I have very few requirements!!
Enough room for us, and no bugs!
What’s the point of moving to a possibly bug-problemmed apt.?
I didn’t mean to imply that you’re too picky, only that there seem to be too few apartments! As far as bedbugs, they are unfortunately very common now, and my understanding is that a past infestation would not be a problem unless there is carpeting, but do your own research, I don’t know this first hand.
Why do most women fear bugs? I think humans are bigger than them. No my house isn’t infested. I get ants once in awhile, but I get rid of them. Recently, I’ve seen some stink bugs flying around, but I saw right before the winter them all over the place in Jersey, maybe some came into my house for the winter. Dunno!
