Apartment Search Methods

The Best: Online apartment locator tools, rental finders, and internet guides to rental areas in Indianapolis. These web sites offer current information, details, maps, and often photos of the apartments listed for rent.

The Mediocre: Print listings of rental properties that are updated less frequently and don't include as many rentals as can be listed online.

The Worst: Driving around looking for random "For Rent" signs. This is a waste of your time and gas because you know nothing about the potential rental property before seeing it except its location.

Before you visit any apartments or rental properties, however, get a map. Even if you have a digital navigation system or a smart phone GPS app, make sure you have a printout of your apartment search route or a map of Indianapolis to make sure there's no chance you'll get lost in an unfamiliar area.
