Need to rent 3 bedroom house (Orlando: cheap house, apartments, income)

[goshorna]

We are currently living in Northern Ky. We have 3 kids. We want to rent a house in a nice neighborhood close to schools and shopping. We can only pay $600-$700 in rent. I've searched the local Fla. newspapers and can't seem to find a cheap house to rent. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Check the 32792 area code. Used to live there - I remember quite a few rental properties - not sure of the price.

Um, from what I've seen, a 3 bedroom is going to run you $1,000-1,300.

Try Craigslist.com I just looked and there was a few houses in your price range but I must warn you that it is going to be REALLY hard finding something nice and or safe in that price range. Also look in the classifieds for the OrlandoSentinel.com. Good luck!

Hopefully you'll luck out and find a bargain. From the searches I've done for 1/1 apartments, they start at 600 and of course go much higher.

You will not find a 3 bedroom rental in Orlando for that amount. Period. I hate to discourage you but that is the simple truth. There are subsidized apartments (they have income restrictions) which will get you a three bedroom in the $900 range. The web site for the apartments I mention is www.ced-concord.com. I would live in one of their properties only as a last resort. Some of them are quite nice but the management has a bad reputation in resident relations and you will never get your deposit returned to you.

I agree with the above poster. Even in the "rough" areas you won't find a 3 bedroom home for less than $1000 a month.
