I plan to move to NY in December. So, I’m thinking of going to NY, second week in November to stay so I can get a feel of the neighborhood, view apartments etc. What do you think are the best & affordable options for staying short term? (that is, from mid November to first week of December or whenever my lease would start). Airbnb? Hotel? Short term lease? I want to stay in Brooklyn if that helps! TIA!!

Hotel

I’m in a similar boat. I was thinking of doing AirBnb. Were you thinking of signing a lease for Jan?

Please can you share the name of the housing groups?

Get a Sonder. I am moving to NYC soon and have to be there for work before I move. I have 2 weeks in flatiron for less than 2300. Just read about Brooklyn.. not sure if they are there.

Opt for a safe hotel

Hotels in nyc are such a mixed bag. ESP if you on a budget <$300 per night. I’d go for Airbnb or Sonder.

Dont do Airbnb you'll get bedbugs

Hotel, I stayed in henn na, $100 per night.

Suggestions on a town that is resonably close to the Boston Airport and still affordable (under $700k for a single family home), also have a kid so schools are eventually going to be important. Suggestions?? Resonably close to the airport to me is an hour or less of car/commuter ride. I am thinking we may have to travel at some scale over the next year and beyond hence the proximity to Bos Logan is important.

She never takes out her card and only venmos me if I send her the request. She lets Venmos sit for weeks before paying them. I still let a lot of things slide.
