    Default Any real estate friends in Tucson?

    It's a long shot, but I figure I'll ask - got any real estate friends in Tucson, Arizona? I'm looking to rent a 3 bedroom, 2 bath house in or around Safford, Arizona for six months starting in mid-September. I will be using it as a "home base" for field testing in conjunction with the project I'm working on. Know anyone who could help me out?

    I just saw a commercial the other day about a web-site for finding homes for rent, but I forget the name.

    The other option is to call a local relator here that also has an office in AZ.

    Why not work a deal with a local hotel for a long term deal on 3 rooms?? You know they would cut a deal for a six moth deal. My sister in law did that when she was a traveling nurse. Someone cleaned the room and she got free breakfast for the duration of the stay.

    $80/night * 30 nights/month = $2400/month

    Even if I get a 50% discount off that price I'm still at $1200/month, and I've got nowhere to store tools and parts. Plus my cost goes up when I have more than one person in town (which will be frequently), hoping that I can find them accomodations in the same hotel.

    Meals aren't an issue. There's a canteen at the minesite.

    All in all because of the nature of the work, it would be more convenient to find a furnished rent house to use for the duration. It's a long shot, but that's why I'm looking!
