    Natalie, I don't actually 'rent' any of my properties, but I do know that the MLS (at least here in AZ) has rental listings.

    If you can get access or have an agent look into for you, I think that would be an effective method for you.

    I use the same method when I'm trying to figure how much I can L/O a property once I've acquired it.

    ummm...ok I am thinking that there should be somewhere else I could go when I am up at night doing research instead of calling my agent. But I will def use him as well.

    Thank You

    Yes, the MLS also has rental listings and comps as well as for sale and sold.
    That is your best and most accurate source.

    You can also contact property management companies in the area and ask them. They shoudl have a good opinion of the going rate for your unit.

    Some more great sites I use are:
    www.city-data.com
    www.moving.com (gives info on city comparisons, city profiles, tax rates, and rental info)
    www.hud.gov/ (resources for fair housing authority / crucial info regarding tenant laws
