There is a new place to hunt for rental housing online. ApartmentTime.com, which launched in July, offers Internet listings for apartments, college housing, corporate housing, senior housing, military housing and HUD housing.
The HUD properties area of the site is devoted to low-income, tax credit, Section 8 and Housing and Urban Development Department properties.
“Growing up in New York’s South Bronx, and living in Section 8 communities, I know first hand what one has to go through to find affordable housing. Our HUD Housing channel will help those in need through those hurdles”, according to the site’s founder, Darren Rogers.
“Apartmentime.com will become the only service where anyone searching for a new residential community can come and find a place to live. Whether its luxury apartments, single-family homes, military housing, senior housing, college housing, corporate housing or HUD-funded communities, they’ll all be listed,” Rogers said in the announcement. He also stated that he plans to translate some property listings into Spanish and Chinese.
The site also includes information about online rent-payment systems, and there are plans to add information about entertainment opportunities in various cities.
“ApartmenTime is not an apartment finder or relocation service, we’re an apartment listing service and there’s never a fee,” according to an online description. “You don’t have to register. Just enter your city and state and let your search begin.”
