Help! Need a short term rental and have hit a lot of dead ends

My husband and I are renovating our coop and have to find a place to live in Park Slope  for 4 months. I have struck out on craigslist, homeaway and vrbo. If anyone has any ideas I would be eternally grateful. Thanks

It’s been weeks so you’ve probably found something by now but if not I know a place.

Furnished or unfurnished? I would search corporate rental sites, though they rend to be furnished.  short term unfurnished apartments tend to be rare.  You could get a place all set up for use, though you would have to put your stuff in storage.

What months are you looking to rent and how big of a place are you looking for?

Do you have to be in Park Slope or for that matter, Brooklyn?
