I know its a long shot, but a friend of the family (young woman, fresh out of college) just got her first real job in Fredericksburg and needs a place to live. Looking to rent for $1,000 or less. Guaranteed to be an excellent tenant.

Is that realistic in that market? It sure as hell isn't up here.

Anyone know anyone?

Thanks in advance.

Not realistic in that market. Fredricksburg is very expensive probably in the 1200-1300 range for a decent 1 bedroom

Rents nationwide have exploded, I don’t think they are going to find much of anything for $1000 a month anymore anywhere without taking roommates.

For that price it will either be a crappy ass 1br apt or rent a room from someone.

1 bed, 1 bath ~$1000

This is about as good as it gets unless someone knows someone. These apartments aren’t far from the college/hospital.

Try Zillows.

She should be prepared to spend more or have a commute.

There are a lot of military bases in the area. Realtors who cater to military personnel would be helpful in determining what's out there.
