Looking for a new place to call home (with your growing family or multiple roommates)? Sheepshead Bites has got you covered. Our rental roundup showcases some of the deals on the market now–and this week, we’re focusing on local three and four bedroom apartments. If you know of a great place available for rent or are a broker representing a property you want included, contact nberke [at] sheepsheadbites [dot] com.

Three Bedroom with Outdoor Space
Price: $1,950, plus broker fee
Location: 2650 East 28th Street (near Voorhies Avenue)
Description: At $650 per roommate split evenly, this place for three will be the kindest on your bank account of all our listings this week. It’s got an extra half bath so you won’t have to get your pee dance on point, plus there’s a “huge private terrace” and pets are allowed on approval.

Sleek No Fee Three Bed
Price: $2,500, no broker fee
Location: Brighton 12th Street and Ocean View Avenue
Description: This one will hit your pocket harder per month than the apartment above, and it lacks that extra half bath and outdoor space–but photos of a comparable unit show it’s significantly fancier and more modern, and more importantly, it’s broker fee-free. And damn, those kitchen counters. Damn.

No Fee Four/Two Place
Price: $2,700, no broker fee
Location: East 3rd Street between Avenues W and X
Description: Another no fee apartment! What is this, Texas? This one houses four, and has two full baths to keep all tenants comfortable and on time to work in the morning–or at least, if you’re late for some reason other than “Mike was singing ‘Let It Go’ in the shower again for 55 minutes and I couldn’t get to the sink,” then it’s your fault. Okay, it might be the MTA’s fault.

Three Beds Plus in a House
Price: $3,100, plus broker fee
Location: 2366 East 5th Street (near Angela Drive)
Description: It’s a little hard to swallow three bedrooms with a fee for $400 more than the above, fee-free four bed, but if you could use a basement, garage, outdoor space, and killer kitchen, this place might be the answer to your prayers. Its current price already reflects a reduction–but as it’s been on the market for about three and a half months, it couldn’t hurt to ask for more.
