If you're going to be moving to San Francisco, you may have noticed that finding cheap apartments isn't easy. If you're looking for an apartment at an affordable price, I'm going to teach you how to do it.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • Computer with Internet
  • Zip Code you want to live in
Step1
Open an internet browser.
Step2
Type in http://www.apartmentguide.com into your browsers URL box.
Step3
Once you're at ApartmentGuide.com, enter in the zip code you want to find cheap apartments in. If you don't know the zip code, search for California in the State pull down menu, and then type in San Francisco in the City text box.
Step4
Once you have entered the things I mentioned above, leave everything else blank and click on the green button that reads "Search."
Step5
Now you will have search results in front of you. Look for the link that reads "Price" and click on it. This will enable you to see all of the apartments available in San Francisco from cheapest to the most expensive ones.

Tips & Warnings

  • If you do not find a cheap apartment that you like at apartmentguide.com, try going to Craigslist and searching for rooms for rent, or apartments for rent in San Francisco there.
  • If you find an apartment that you like from ApartmentGuide.com, let the apartment complex know you found them there; you could receive up to $200 off your first rent payment.
  • Call the apartment before you visit them if possible to avoid spending too much gas. Discuss your needs and ask for all kinds of information through the phone.

on 6/6/2008 http://www.housingmaps.com/ is great for searching cheap apartments in San Francisco and all other major cities in the United States.

It's like the "apartment guide" but using Craigslist data!
