I will be moving to New Haven to start graduate school at Yale this fall. I’m hoping to move to the East Rock area. Are there any reputable/trustworthy rental agencies I can contact? Any good real estate agents? I’ve heard of a few companies I should avoid. Looking for recommendations. Thanks!

Seabury hill are amazing. Highly recommend Melanie Gunn. She got me a great rental two years ago and I just closed on my first house with her a week ago.

Pearce Real Estate is great (I am biased because I’m married to one though). My husband works with a lot of new Yale students and staff. If you reach out to Pearce they’ll connect you someone who can arrange tours and make sure you find the best spot

Entirely white staff FYI, not everyone has the best experience (about 15 white agents)

I have heard that Yale has some listings just for people who are affiliated. You may want to check in with your advisor or department secretary to see if they know more.

There’s like two companies that brand rentals under like 5 names each. It’s all the same for the most part and they’re all terrible. You’re better off finding a small portfolio landlord.

I used Coldwell Banker with 0 issues:

https://www.coldwellbankerhomes.com/ct/new-haven/rentals/

They also include other rental companies in their listings so note that as well
