I am moving back to NYC after a two year absence. I am considering using one of these agencies, such as: Delta Room Rentals, NYC Rooms For Rent Inc, for a short term living until I find employment. Has anyone ever used one of these agencies or knows someone who did? What was the experience like? Would you or they recommend it for a short term situation?

Is this a spam thing or something, second time a fresh poster puts up stuff like this?

On the assumption it is not intended as spam; if something sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

But nobody ever replies with a good review. if it's spam to push cheap digs then the spammer better learn some new tricks.

I was acutually inquring about these services. I was not spamming or advertising.

Ummm - I was actually wondering the same thing about these temp housing services...I'm also looking for a temporary living situation.

Has anyone ever dealt with Delta? They keep popping up in Google searches, Craig's List...and, well, I've already been scammed on Craig's List once already!

Anyone? There MUST be a consumer report out there somewhere....

P.S. I just found this article: http://ask.metafilter.com/45652/NYC-...n-a-shoestring

I posted a response to a question about Delta Rentals here.

My original concerns about their website have not changed. Still no activity since one entry on March 01. That's a warning sign for me.

Call them at 212.862.0457, or better if you're in the area, go to their office.
3668 Broadway (152 St).

I tried a couple of those agencies in New York,one of them did not scam me but they gave me a hard time finding me a room. I went back home (Texas)then I came back and used Delta room rentals and they got me the room that Im staying now pretty quickly. I believe their address is on 3644 Broadway. But is true you need to be aware of all the scam their is especially in craigslist.
