I personally found a bunch of junk on Craigslist when I was last looking for a place. The Seattle Times online classifieds were a mother lode by comparison.

I found the place I'm renting on Craigslist. Granted, we just moved in, but so far, so good.
It's a townhouse, though. . .I didn't find a SFH in our price range ($2,000ish) that appealed to me.

So, do you all consider $1500-$2000 the going rate for a decent 2 BR rental in the Seattle-Tacoma metro area? I might not be saving as much per month on rent as I'd hoped, if that's the case. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm crazy for selling this place (1 br condo in Magnolia), as I have a 15-yr fixed mortgage and my total payment (P&I, tax, HOA) is under $1500/mo.
Granted, I have other reasons for selling besides just cashing out (like job change, more space, and the desire to build a house and get a dog), but it makes me wonder if I should hang onto it for the long haul.

How much 'access' will you need to Seattle and Tacoma? Will you be commutting every day to one or the other?
