Hey,

Can anyone recommend a good site for looking at properties available to rent? I've looked at MLS but this only seems to work for properties to purchase. Any ideas or suggestions appreciated. Thanks.

is good for perusing at least and getting some ideas of costs. Most are suites and apartments, but there are some houses listed as well. Good luck.
