Renting a 5-bedroom in Elizabeth
Elizabeth is a Union County market with its own pricing pattern: Elmora and North Elizabeth tend to run higher, while Elizabethport and Bayway carry the most affordable inventory in the city. The housing stock is a mix of brick multi-families, mid-century garden apartments and converted two-families, and turnover moves quickly near the Midtown train station.
We do not have a published 5 bedroom price in Elizabeth at this moment — inventory at this size moves within days, so call and we will tell you what is opening next. Five-bedroom units are the rarest thing we publish and often appear as a whole-house rental rather than an apartment. If nothing is showing at this size today, call us — these are frequently filled by phone before they are posted.
Our Elizabeth inventory is concentrated in Elizabethport, the Peterstown area, Midtown, Bayway and North Elizabeth. Elizabeth's Midtown and North Elizabeth NJ Transit stations sit on the Northeast Corridor and North Jersey Coast Line, giving a direct ride to Newark Airport and New York Penn Station.
Brick multi-family buildings in Elizabeth often run central heat and hot water included; Bayway and Elizabethport two-families more commonly meter heat separately. Tenant-paid electric is close to universal. Vouchers here are administered by the Housing Authority of the City of Elizabeth, and Union County vouchers apply as well. Owners on this page accept Housing Choice Vouchers.
Trisk Living publishes these Union County listings on behalf of the owners and management companies that hold them, and connects renters directly with them. Using this page is free for renters — call (973) 412-3881 to ask about a specific 5 bedroom before you apply.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about vouchers, fees, and how we work.
Do you charge renters a fee?
No. Getting matched, touring apartments, and asking us questions is free. If a landlord charges an application or agent fee on a specific unit, we tell you before you apply.
Do you accept Section 8 vouchers?
Yes. Section 8 and other housing vouchers are welcome, and New Jersey law protects renters from source-of-income discrimination. We work with landlords who accept vouchers every day.
Which cities do you cover?
We focus on North Jersey — Newark, Irvington, East Orange, Elizabeth, and Paterson — plus nearby towns like Hillside, Orange, and Woodbridge.
What if my credit isn't perfect?
All renters are welcome. Tell us about your situation up front and we'll point you toward landlords who work with it instead of wasting your time on applications that won't land.
How fast will someone contact me?
We typically call back within one business day, and often the same afternoon. You can also call or text us at (973) 412-3881 to reach an agent right away.
Are the listings on this site real?
Yes. Listings are updated daily from our own inventory. Rented and off-market units are removed instead of left up as bait.
