Default The best Relocation websites on the web (Rent.com, etc.)?

I already know of Padmapper.com and Rent.com as being decent.

What are some other really good, user-friendly, and very helpful websites? Thanks!

If they're rental communities, call/email them.. I'm finding the prices are never accurate and always higher than what appears online.

For renting, seems like padmapper + craigslist are the best. Any prices from apartment complexes found online on in those little books are ALWAYS less than what they really our... + move in fee + application fee + whatever else they want to tack on.

On Craigslist I've seen single family homes advertised, complexes, and apartments in a home.

Rent.com and Apartment.com feature only traditional apartment communities which is fine in some cities but relatively useless in large metro areas in the Northeast for example where those type of developments are rare. In most instances I find Craigslist or online editions of the local weekly independent paper to be the best assets.
