Relocating to Bethel... (house, rental, job)

[seanlee612]

Hi, I have posted before regarding to relocating to Bethel. Thanks for the great information...

I have finally found a job with the airport, now I need some information on finding a place to live. I won't be making alot of money, but enough to make it by....I think.

If anyone can give me some helpful info, I would appreciate it very much...

Thanks^^

what are you looking for? are you alone? do you have a car or plan on buying one? and you need $1000 deposit on everything here. some call for 1st, last and security.

DONT BE SHOCKED. I can list things if you answer the above question.

I am relocating alone...
I do have a car, but I am relocating from NYC so I am not sure if I will be taking my car with me...

Your car can only be barged out to Bethel. No roads into Bethel and flying a car in is prohibitive. You can check with Northern Air Cargo, or one of the other air cargo carriers.

Check pricing with say Samson Tug and Barge or one of the others.

Not worth it unless you are relocating permanently. Most people get around on foot, or 4-wheeler or by snowmachine in winter.

Something close to the airport? Furnished? Would you want a one bedroom? Roomies? I see posting all over... let me know and I'll get you a number. See ya.

Anything from studio to one bedroom. I will be living by myself...so I don't need to much room. Any helpful information would be appreciated.(Furnished or not.)
Thanks...^^

Ok, I listed some things from the newspaper, however I would suggest that if you are going to rent, make sure heat is included. Water if possible. If not a $1500 a month rental will cost you about $2100 a month. plus utilities.

Make sure you haggle on the price and the down payments. Also if you want let me know the address of the place and I can go over and take a look at the property. I will send you a photo of it also.

Almost all of the rentals require $1000 deposit some 1st month, last month and deposit..so haggle, haggle, haggle! Be careful!!! ask one of us before you rent!

I will look for more
