What is the best way to find a rental home in W-S?
I sent an email to a realtor that has been in contact with me, looked through rent.com, move.com, and craigslist and also posted on craigslist.

Are there any other local resources that may be helpful in my search?
Thanks for your help!

Re: What is the best way to find a rental home in W-S?
Are you coming down for a visit? Especially around WFU/Baptist hospital, a lot of people don't advertise, because they don't need to. (That may have changed somewhat as Craigslist has grown in popularity, but it used to be the case.) So you have to drive around and look for signs.
Are you or your husband going into the residency program at WFU? Have you checked to see if they have a housing office? I know when we moved away from W-S with little notice, a friend who works there took in some info about the apartment we were trying to sublet. But, I don't know if she just posted it in her department or if there was actually a central housing office that she submitted it to.
The plan is for me to fly down (with my dad) for one day, scope out places and pick one, and then later in spring go for a weekend with DH to get a feel for the area overall. So that puts me at a disadvantage in finding something not advertised since I don't think they would be ready to show me the place in a matter of hours.
And yes, DH is doing a fellowship down there. I have never been there and have no contacts with anyone, including the hospital. I guess I'll have to get on him to send an email to the program coordinator and ask about the housing office! Thanks!

You may already have this info but to add to my above comments. . .

This link will get you to the incoming house staff page. If you scroll through there is contact info for the house staff office as well as for the RSA (resident spouse association). The RSA was the group I was talking about that lists homes for sale but I'm not sure about rentals.
Good luck!
