My husband and I are looking for an apartment in or around Galena, IL. We have already looked at all the major apartment websites and have had little to no luck. I was wondering if anybody knows where one could look to find one!!!
Thanks!!

go to the drugstore or food market close to where you'd like to live - they usually have a spot where people can pin adds.. you might find something there!

I am from Illinois, but not familiar with the Galena area. However when I was looking for apts my best luck was driving around and calling from the phone book. Only the most high-priced apartments will have web-sites

Another helpful idea is to look at the newspapers in the area you are moving to. Many newspapers have their classified and For Rent sections available online. If they don't, simply subscribe to the paper short term and have it delivered to your current address. (Yes they will deliver via the mail to anywhere in the world) This can help you find duplexes, homes and smaller apartments that are often cheaper than the larger complexes.

You should try calling a real estate agent. They can find listings through the MLS that may not be listed in other public resources... the fee is low for rentals so it's usually worth the help you receive...

Look up apartment locators, they are free to you because the get commission from the landlords. They advertise in your local paper.
