A lot of privately owned rentals or apartments in small buildings are never listed on web sites like that. Back when I had a two-family house, I always found my tenants through word of mouth or from posts like this on social media.

she did not specifically ask about apartments in a private home. Since no one had any information to add, I posted the link, which has lots of apartments in her price range.


Thanks all, your comments have been helpful and passed on

She specifically said "can be in 2 family house," which indicates an apartment in a private home. Nothing wrong with posting a link to a nationwide commercial web site, but it may not be the most effective way to find rentals from small local landlords.
