Tired of making lists? Item no. 10 on your new list: Stop making lists.

Before you get to that point and before you even begin to read the apartment listings, make a list of things that you want your new apartment to have in it. Shoot for the moon. They don't have apartments there, but shoot for it anyway.

How many bedrooms do you need? What part of town do you want to live in? Does it have to have a gym? If not, is it close to one? Does it have an alarm system? Can you have pets? Is it close to the freeway or to work?

Another key component of finding an apartment is how to find the listings that will help lead you to the apartment of your dreams. Why waste time walking around? Get online.
