My boyfriend and I are moving from Chicago and are seriously struggling to find a place in Silver Lake or Los Feliz. It seems like there just isn’t anything available. Can anyone help? We’ve check Zillow, Craigslist and even Facebook Market Place daily.

Where’s your office? I know everything is WFH now but if you end up going in and office is in Playa Vista you’re gonna regret it.

Best way may be to do a visit and walk around the neighborhood looking for For Rent signs and call the number while standing outside. Usually you can go right in for a self guided tour and apply right there. The good places go really fast here. For example, I toured a place, applied that day, put my deposit down the day after and moved in the next week. It’s a lot different than Chicago in that regard.

We found our apartment in Silver Lake on Trulia. I looked literally every day and as soon as we found one that checked the boxes, we made sure to contact and go for a viewing asap. I think the trick is getting in there as soon as the apartment posts. It’s a mad house out here but I know you’ll find something!

Facebook Market Place?

Try joining Facebook roommate groups!! That’s how I found my place, and the big ones are super active.

Drive around. One of you take notes on the non-commercial owners who put up old school For Rent signs in a window. Also works well in the fairytale houses up on Franklin... good luck
