I'm moving in a few months, I live in Detroit and I want to stay in Detroit or Hamtramck. Can anyone suggest websites or papers with rental listings? I know of craigs list and I've looked in the Monitor but there really are not a lot of good places to find what is for rent in Detroit..

Two great sites with some under-the-radar, privately-owned rentals listed:

Midtown:
http://detroitmidtown.com/05/m idtown.php

New Center:
http://www.newcenter.com/housi ng.htm

Welcome to the forum and good luck! Let us know where you end up living or where you are looking at places, and the members here will give you major word-on-the-street info regarding the area/neighborhood.

I recall that the Grosse POinte News has plenty of Detroit listings in its for-rent classified section. I don't know how quality of listings compared to anything else, though all listings were on the east sid near GP.

The folks at O'Connor real estate in Corktown next to Slows always have some nice places to rent.

This is gonna sound really obvious, but pick a neigborhood and go cruise thru with your eyes open..
LOTS of folks are doing the "for rent" thing without the benefit of any advertising other than a sign in front of the house these days. Gotta be nine or ten houses in my neighborhood with hand lettered signs out front..

Margaret Palmer of Renaissance Investment manages rentals on a lot of property in Woodbridge/ Midtown. Her web site is http://www.margaretpalmer.com/ home.asp
Most the stuff listed on there is properties for sale, but give her a call and let her know what you're looking to rent and she can usually hook you up

I always post my flats in Hamtramck on Craigslist. Unfortunately, I don't have any for rent right now, because Craigslist always works out for me. Good luck with your search.
