My suggestion:
1. Get an idea of how much 2-3 bedrooms go for within your budget. I set up a basic search for "within an hour of midtown Manhattan" / 2-3 bedrooms / under $3400 / listed within the past month: GO HERE
2. Here is the same list based on listings that came on market within the past 24 hours. It will clear every day at midnight and slowly repopulate over the course of the day: GO HERE
3. Here is a list of 3 bedroom apartments (all listed) from cheapest to most expensive the are supposedly still available. (I'm skeptical about listings that are more than a week or so old.). GO HERE
Now you have a general idea of the market.
Here are 2-3 BR listings under $3400 in Lower Manhattan that came on market within the past week. GO HERE
UPPER WEST SIDE (this week) GO HERE
So now you have a general idea what the market looks like. These listings are LIVE, so they will keep changing.
There are many ways we can search, but I want to start by helping you see the market. (You can change the search criteria and experiment.)
There are many ways we can search. For example, you send me viewing requests from these links.
I can also set up search alerts for you (using another service), and when you reach a point that you know what's out there and know what you want, I can do some detective work.
