One way to get a "free" apartment would be to manage the complex in exchange for rent.  I guess that's not really "free", but then again, what is?\n\nAnother idea, would be to caretake for people while they are away on vacation in return for living there.

Somewhere in the range of fifty to a hundred thousand dollars depending on how good you want it to be.  There are some non-profit agencies that do it for free for indigent defendants.

ignore all the negativity - people like that will never make it...\n\nive got one idea that is not definite but could be worth looking into\n\na) find a house worth $100, 000 eg, three bed, car park, garage, etc. im from uk so i have no idea about US prices\nb) buy one in that area or roundabouts - can even do the project in another state or country that was vandalised, burnt out, or something - hopefully u pay about $30,000\nc) fix it up with all mod cons and everything - canclulate how much this will cost and save another 5% for unexpected costs\nd) sell it once u have finished\ne) very vague and basic but you get the idea...?

well, that could go anywhere from a $1,000 to $2,000 bucks easily.\n\nhttp://newyork.craigslist.org/cgi-bin/search?areaID=3&subAreaID=0&query=&catAbbreviation=aap&minAsk=min&maxAsk=max&bedrooms=1

Upwards of $800 for anything liveable. Depends on the part of the city you want to live in as well. Good luck finding something!

Strange how costly it can be to not want to live by a few little rules, isn't it.\n\nHeck, you want to move out and you can't even prepare a budget for your self.\n\nWhat do you want a roommate for? To get sick of rules again, or to mother him by making rules for him?\n\nBTW! $1000.00/month is sufficient if you wish to reside in a poor house.

A STAY AT HOME MORE IS PRICELESS.  THERE IS NO AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH TO PAY THEM

Perhaps if you were to go to work and pay market rates, you would have less problems!! Why should taxpayers subsidize you? And now you want free legal advice because your subsidized housing situation is not good enough?\n\n\nSorry, I do not see where you have a complaint

Yes, it is free. Follow the directions they give you.

if they did would that do away with homelessness? no it would not. there are people that give money to help fight homelessness all the time. yet it's still around.why not just give everyone a home to live in ? why ? because that would be to easy...yes i know, where is all that money going to came from?   how about some of this money that the tax payers pay in everyday that gets wasted on stuff that doesn't help anyone.....churchs do their part in helping with the homeless, so lets not take away the help that they do have. because i don't see to many others trying to step in and save the day.

I don't know about free unless you slip into an apartment complex and claim to be someones guest.  You can try the YMCA on Old Kings Road

WOW,\n What an opportunity. You have the answer right there. You have 330 units already rented with people who would love to save on their space. Make flyers, self or have kinkos or someone else do it. Say something like, Bring me a person who signs a contract for a place and receive a week or month free. depends how you normally charge. If  you charge 100 a month x1200 a year , and let's say 100 units take you up on this offer you loose $10,000 in free months or week  of rent. The up- side, the lost is only once(one month of free rent.). and of course you now have 100 more units rented. 100 times $100 a month = you guessed it $10,000. You really lost nothing and gained 100 more units rented. Suppose only 50 units remained after the month 50 x $100 a month =$5,000, additional  money than your current situation and very little expense from you. I would sweeten the deal and offer those that are referred a free week or free month,but of course only if the sign a longer lease. Your  customers are always looking for ways to save, they are motivated. Business cards, cheap and cheap to print on the back , 10% discount off of 1st month rent etc, with this card. Give them out to everybody,everybody. Leave them when you pay for dinner or at the cashier at the gas station, post them in apt buildings laundry mats, etc

Not a chance!\n\nA paraphrase of your question: "Lets say we lived in the same area, would you want to take a dip in a cesspool for free?"
