looking for short term apartment furnished in brooklyn new york in the bay ridge area can you help?

Im moving to New York City in a few years time and im hoping to find some good websites what i could browse apartments in Brooklyn and Manhattan. I would appreciate it
Thanks,

I’ve seen the ridiculous prices of Manhattan apartments, and I’m wondering how land lords can charge that much money for a small studio apartment. Will the rent ever get better? Can politics decrease the price of rent?

What are the cheapest neighborhoods in Manhattan (excluding northern Manhattan)? Are more people moving to Brooklyn and Queens?

my brooklyn apartment rent has increased from $2450 to $2640. that’s a $189 (or 7.7%) incease.

it sounds like a pretty substantial incease. is there any way i can check into its legality? is there a ceiling percentage that a landlord can raise my rent on an annual basis?

I am working on a Research Study for my college about the rent in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, New York. I would like to gather some realistic figure about the rent (in average) between 2004 to 2006 for 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedroom apartment. If you have helpful information, please kindly provide to me! I am very appreciated! Or please provide website I could search. Thanks!
