Lincoln Park, NJ 38 Apartments for Rent with Move-in Specials

Lincoln Park may not have any claims to fame, but sometimes the best places to live are the ones that keep a low profile. To validate this theory, New Jersey Monthly magazine recently named Lincoln Park as one of the best places to live in New Jersey, due in part to its friendly small-town ambiance, civic pride and sense of community. It's the kind of place where the local library has a chess club (it really does), and where the local lacrosse team raises money by hosting a community spaghetti dinner. Along with this warm and fuzzy neighborhood vibe, you'll also find a major corporate presence here that includes Outwater Hardware Corporation and KayPentax, a major medical equipment manufacturer. With a population of 10,521 (2010 census), Lincoln Park truly qualifies as a small town, but with Newark and New York City just half an hour and 45 minutes away, respectively (as long as it's not rush hour), you're close to all the joys and none of the headaches of urban America.

Move-in specials offer an enticing incentive to Lincoln Park apartment renters looking to save. However, it’s important to ask about any stipulations to the move-in specials. A free month’s rent may only apply to specific apartment floors or basic amenities instead of the apartment you really want.

Other move-in specials might include a lowered or no security deposit option. Keep in mind the lack of security deposit means you are responsible for damage when moving out.

No application fees are also popular move-in specials, which will immediately put more money back in your pocket.

Lincoln Park apartments are more likely to offer move-in specials during an off-season like winter when fewer people are moving. You may be able to negotiate your own special like free parking for a year in the paid garage.
