Some people when relocating to Madison Wisconsin will rent for 6-12 months to get settled in and acquainted with the area, then buy property once the new job is going great and they have an idea where they want to live. Although I’m a real estate agent who handles sales instead of rentals, I want to help you find the kind of housing that’s right for you. So if you fall into the category of those looking to rent before buying, here’s a list of connections that can help get you started.
