Put out your own ad on Craigslist specifying what you need and what you are willing to pay.
A few years ago, I needed a month-to-month rental while I was looking for a condo. I have cats and knew it was going to be difficult to find an apartment with no lease and that let me have cats. I put an ad on Craiglist for Monmouth specifying that I needed two bedrooms, rental with no lease while I looked for a condo, and that I have four cats, and specified what I was willing to pay. Within a day or two I had three offers. One worked out very well--he had a two-family, had renovated the first floor and was living in it and was willing to rent it to me and move upstairs while he renovated the second floor. And he had four cats of his own, so he was cool with mine. I lived there for nine months and bought my condo.
I think this was easier than trying to call a thousand landlords who wouldn't want someone like me.
