   If you visit any of the last three websites I listed, look for your state and city, and then find the "Apartments for Rent" section.

Tips & Warnings

• If you don't find results in one site, try another.
• If you still don't find a cheap apartment that you can afford, consider looking for a roommate to share the cost of rent with.
• If you find an apartment with the first 3 sites I mentioned and you sign a lease, make sure to let them know you found them on that website to get a rebate or a discount.
• Make sure to let the website know as well if you signed a lease, as you may receive a bonus from them too.
• Call or email the property that you find interesting for more information, this will allow you to save money on gas.
