In the past 9 years that I lived in US I have moved 6 times already. With the current job market and real estate situation, it might be better to rent than to own a place. Moving around US is pretty easy, but when you move to a new city you need to find where is the best place to rent, which was never an easy thing to do. Who has time to go check it out, when you are on a tight schedule. In the days when you can find everything on the web, it is about time this information be available in one place. Web has tons of sites that post rental ads and yes, if you search hard enough you also can find information about the neighborhoods. What about one site that has rent, neighborhood stats and also shows you rents around the area? Well, finally there is something on the web that can help us, people who move around a lot, to get all the information about the neighborhoods, statistics, rents and also see what is for rent in the neighborhood - http://www.zilpy.com/
I was in the process of moving to California, I knew that I wanted to live somewhere between San Francisco and San Jose, but didn't have a particular place in mind. I had some friends who lived in Campbell, been there a few times myself, but I didn't have much time to drive around and look at neighborhoods. So I thought, lets look at http://www.zilpy.com/, or specifically http://www.zilpy.com/US/California/Santa_Clara_County/Campbell/
I was looking for 2 bedroom apartment, here I could see an average rent for a 2 bedroom place was around $1580, it is a lot more expensive than the area I was moving from, but it is California! So here I could see stats about the neighborhood's average income of the household, % of renters occupied, and education. The site also has a nice heatmap of the rentals around the area.
Renting right now, interested to see what are renting around your area? Just enter you address and you will see what is for rent around your area. Time is money and http://www.zilpy.com/ saves you a lot of your valuable time. Stay tuned for more updates.
