Apps for Finding A Great Apartment

May 12, 2013

In years past, finding a new apartment meant going down to the newsstand and picking up your local newspaper. The limitations of finding an apartment as such were vast: if you were moving to another city, for instance, it was much more difficult to get information on available units, let alone see them. These days, however, the evolution of technology has allowed us to obtain all of this information in just a few clicks, making someone who’s looking for a new apartment’s life much, much easier.In this article, we will recommend four of the best location tools you can use to finding a great apartment.

PadMapper

If you have ever used Craigslist to try to find an apartment, you probably know just how frustrating it is to filter results and obtain the most relevant information. Fortunately, a system exists that takes all of this data from Craigslist and aggregates it into a much more user-friendly interface. PadMapper can be used to filter apartment results in an area by price, number of rooms and whether or not the apartment is pet friendly. For those who find themselves checking Craigslist for apartment listings already, PadMapper will make a great addition to your search by giving the results a revamped look and feel.

Apartments.com

One of the oldest websites providing apartment search information, Apartments.com has a great layout and plenty of ways in which filter and view results. Because of this, the website has perhaps the largest number of apartment listings of any other website on the internet. With photos, videos and even virtual 360 degree tours, you can get a feel of each apartment before proceeding any further. Apartments.com has also been smart enough to develop an app for iPhone that allows mobile users to check out listings while on the go. You can even use the interactive map to alert you whenever new apartments for rent are available as you walk or drive through a particular area.

MyApartmentMap

While this service offers the same standard listing features as all of the other contenders, its main claim to fame is the amount of data mining you can do when searching for a new apartment. In many regards, this particular service is similar to sites like Zillow, with up to date market prices and estimates available for each area, giving you the best idea of what any particular apartment should cost. It is through this service that you can verify just what exactly is a fair price to pay for any unit – depending on the case, you may be able to use this information to negotiate a lower rate with a landlord.

HotPads

The unique feature that HotPads offers is the ability to view heat maps that detail various sets of data that may be of interest to any potential mover. Want to see where the highest amount or crime is or find out the average earnings of a particular neighbourhood? Hotpads will give you these answers, along with all the apartment listings that you obviously want to see.
