What does "Cheap" mean for Apartment rentals in Downtown, NY?

Cheap is a relative term to communicate more "affordable" rental and living expenses. Although a property might be found within the "Cheap Apartments" search, does not mean it is a low-quality rental. These more affordable apartments are also relative to the other apartment inventory within Downtown. Some areas will be cheaper than others and based on demand, rent will fluctuate.

How to search for Cheap Apartments in Downtown, NY?

When searching on HotPads for more affordable apartments, use the "Sort:" feature to sort apartments by Lowest Price for Downtown. Additionally, set a max price for your search and select "Save search" to be notified in real-time when "cheaper" apartments come on the market.

What are some additional tips for securing a "cheaper" apartment?

Although a larger multi-tenant building is less likely to negotiate rental terms there are a few things that don't hurt to try, including:

Offer to sign a longer lease for lowered monthly rent
Negotiate landscaping or property maintenance for lowered monthly rent
Ask about becoming an onsite property manager
Educate yourself regarding the apartment rental market and market rates in Downtown. Knowing this will help you accurately negotiate fair rent.
