Due to the slow real estate market, I get a LOT of phone calls, emails, and inquiries through our website from people who are looking for a home to rent. Our team typically does not broker leases between owners and renters — however, I want to help when someone contacts me. So I’ve put together a list of good online sources for rentals in the Harrisonburg area:
1. The Daily News-Record (in case you have not moved to the area yet, the DNR is the major newspaper)
2. Two brokerages that almost exclusively practice property management: Mountain Valley Management and Riner Rentals.
3. Harrisonburg’s Craigslist page (look under the “housing” section)
4. The e-classifieds page of Eastern Mennonite University
And here are two more sources from alert readers — they are in the comments below, but I thought I’d add them to the post:
1. James Madison University’s Off Campus Housing Service
2. A long list of rental sources on the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Chamber of Commerce website
Which reminds me, our team has a list of apartment complexes on our website. Or click here to see them all on a Google map.

I have used the sources listed above in the past, as well as the Housing section of the HR Chamber of Commerce directory, available here: http://www.hrchamber.org/member_directory.php?category=Housing
