Frequently asked questions

What does "Cheap" mean for Apartment rentals in Mesa, AZ?

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 Mesa. Some areas will be cheaper than others and based on demand, rent will fluctuate.

How to search for Cheap Apartments in Mesa, AZ?

When searching on HotPads for more affordable apartments, use the "Sort:" feature to sort apartments by Lowest Price for Mesa. Additionally, set a max price for your search and select "Alert me" 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 Mesa. Knowing this will help you accurately negotiate fair rent.

About Mesa

Area Information

Mesa is a city in Maricopa County, Arizona. Fifteen miles east of Phoenix, in the Valley of the Sun, Mesa combines the best of modern and ancient culture.

Mesa features a number of distinct neighborhoods. The downtown area is a hub for art lovers and boasts hundreds of unique shops and restaurants. There are museums, galleries, more than 200 street sculptures, and the seven-acre Mesa Arts Center, which includes theaters, exhibition space, visual and performing arts studios, and outdoor space. As a 'culinary gateway' to Greater Phoenix, Mesa also showcases local flavor, with independent restaurants and craft breweries offering creations born on local farms. This area also is wrapped in the natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert, so those renting in Mesa can explore endless canyon and desert landscapes in a variety of ways, including on horseback or by kayaking and hiking. Despite being the third-largest city in Arizona, Mesa maintains a suburban feel, with parks in easy walking distance and a range of sports facilities and golf courses.

Commuters in Mesa use U.S. Route 60, which runs from Apache Junction to Phoenix, as well as State Route 87 and bypass loops 101 and 202. Valley Metro's light rail service will soon tie Mesa to Phoenix and Tempe, which sits to the west. Long-distance travelers use Phoenix's Sky Harbor International Airport, which is about 12 miles away from downtown Mesa, and the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport, which is about 17 miles away.
