first time renter
Hello, I am looking for my first apartment in brooklyn (prefeably the greenpoint or williamsburg area..i know people are annoyed with the young 20 somethings moving in..but i like the area!) Anyways I've been reading shady information about trusting brokers and realtors, and I've been searching craigslist for about 4 months jsut to get an idea. If anyone knows of a trust broker that isnt going to rip me off or has a resonalble fee I would greatly apprecaite it!

All of the brokers are shady. it's the nature of the business. Try to network with friends, coworkers, strangers in bars, etc..

Howdy,
I spent a good long while trying to find a spot in greenpoint that wasn't a total ripoff, using craiglist and such but had no luck. Finally I gave in and tried the broker route. I went with greenpoint properties, and thought it was a pretty good experience. The agent I worked with was really helpful and his rate was reasonable.
Good luck!
