Nobody likes pets in Corning/Elmira? (apartments, tenant, landlord)

[lefty514]

I have an interview coming up in Elmira and have been looking at craigslist at apartments. I am amazed at the number that do not accept pets. Seems like 95%. Without just directing me to an apartment website, does anyone know of a complex/apt/mgt company that does accept a couple of cats? What have others experience been trying to find a pet-friendly apt in Corning?

While I don't have any advice specific to Corning, my take on CL ads has always been that unless it specifically says "no pets" then it's still an option in my mind. I'd just contact and ask. Alot of people don't advertise that they take pets because they don't want to be bombarded with them. But if they find a tenant they really like and they happen to have pets, then that's ok.

I agree with Becca. Unless it specifically says 'no pets' just contact the landlord and ask. Even those who say 'no pets' may be willing to allow a cat if you offer additional $ for the security deposit. Never hurts to give it a shot!

Good answers..I did see many No Pets listed but several without anything.

Good luck!
