Good places to rent?

I'm trying to move from nearby to NOLA proper, and Craigslist seems to be full of scammers.

Are there good resources for not getting scammed while trying to rent?

Also literally driving around in neighborhoods you wanna live in is sometimes the best way to find available places. There should be TONS of open apartments near the universities right now- they all just moved or are moving out.

This. There are many landlords that don't advertise with anything more than a yard sign.

Search r/askNOLA and r/NewOrleans for a list of the good/bad landlords. And check out apartments.com or use an agent.

And fwiw - askNOLA will be more helpful on advising you on neighborhoods, etc if you give some info about what you’re looking for (in the action vs in the suburbs, budget, number of bedrooms you need, etc).

I found a couple of my previous apartments on Latter and Blums website. Just have to filter to rentals, obviously. Good luck!
