Re: Getting house/apartment

We found our apt. online on the pennysaver & then our house on MLSLI. We did so much research & basically then told the agent THIS is what we want to see & they'd schedule the appts.

I used an agent.

I also used Natefind when looking for homes to buy in Manhattan. I'm pretty sure they compile listings in Brooklyn too.
