East coast living has been a dream of mine for a lifetime. However, the cost of living is steadily increasing & in order to afford an apartment on my own in New York City, I needed to find the cheapest way to find the perfect five from 650 miles away. As a young adult, moving costs are not easy to accommodate.
As a native Midwesterner, it was also helpful that detailed neighborhood information was given, seeing as I had no NYC experience within my decision-making system. This unfamiliarity discouraged the system because of my unawareness of the cost of living. A website that effectively described the value within the apartments listed helped me to organize what each place could give me compared to the others in surrounding areas. Variety is also important; a website that offered a range of types of living areas was more encouraging to me because the website had taken the time to present a range for their users.
As a new renter, I needed to seek out a resource that helped me to quickly & cost-effectively rent my apartment. In a city as large as New York, I needed a simple way to organize myself in finding a place. A website that made the search simple helped to make the hunt for a place less stressful. It was also helpful that new listings were sent directly to my email & all postings had photos, maps & even directions when I decided to take a look at the place for myself.
The importance of direct correspondence when moving long-distance is vital. This website allowed me to get detailed, personal attention with answers to my questions about neighborhoods, how to deal with landlords, etc. The site effectively helped my difficult move much more of a pleasant experience. With their help, I found the best place I could from out of state & received answers to all the questions I had in order to feel that I had made the best decision with my long-distance move.
