Could be a silly question — i am beginning to look for a new apartment in the city and ideally want to rent from private landlords rather than going thru Apartment People / @ Properties / Compass, etc. How do you find private landlords?! I have good credit and am very clean! A landlord would love me lol

The apartments I found on domu.com were both private landlords and property management companies depending on the type of property (I was looking in LP which has a ton of private landlords). Try it and see if it works?

Thanks so much!

I moved here from Boston and used Domu. We also walked around neighborhoods we liked and saw a ton of for rent by owner signs in windows, just called those numbers and set up showing.
