I’m basically calling higher-end places owned by realtors with good user ratings on an apartment ratings site. When I get ahold of a complex, I ask them if they can send me digital photos of the place before I apply.

It’s worked thus far…I got pictures from one place and the other place I’m looking at right now is going to be sending me a custom video tour of my prospective unit.

Now, I probably have a slightly higher budget than the normal grad student though. I live with my fiance in a 1 bedroom apt, so we can split a more expensive unit.
