Renting a 3-bedroom in Newark

Newark is the largest rental market in New Jersey, and the inventory splits sharply by neighborhood: pre-war two- and three-family houses across the North Ward and Vailsburg, denser walk-ups in the Ironbound, and larger elevator buildings near University Heights and Downtown. Most of what we publish here comes from small owners who hold two to six units on one block, which is why the same street can list two very different rents in the same week.

Right now we are showing 63 3 bedroom units in Newark, priced from $1,695 to $2,800 a month, with a median asking rent of $2,095. That range is what owners are actually asking this week, not a market estimate. Three-bedrooms are usually a full floor of a two- or three-family house, which buys more square footage per dollar than an equivalent unit in an apartment building, often with a porch, basement share or driveway parking. At this size, have voucher inspection paperwork ready before you tour.

Our Newark inventory is concentrated in Fairmount, West Side, Lower Vailsburg, Upper Clinton Hill, South Broad Street and Weequahic. Newark Penn Station, Broad Street Station, the Newark Light Rail and the 1/13/25/27 bus lines put most of these blocks within a short ride of the PATH into Manhattan.

Heat and hot water are included in a large share of Newark two- and three-family units because the building runs one boiler; tenants normally pay their own PSE&G electric, and cooking gas is split about evenly between included and separately metered. The Newark Housing Authority administers Housing Choice Vouchers here, and owners on this page accept them. Bring your voucher size, your inspection contact, and your caseworker's name to the first showing so paperwork does not stall the unit.

Trisk Living publishes these Essex 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 3 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 your situation and we'll match you to the right available units.

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.
