Valley Cottage, NY

61 Condos for Rent

Valley Cottage is a hamlet of the town of Clarkstown in southwest New York. The population was just over 9,100 in 2010, and at just 4.3 square miles, Valley Cottage gives residents the chance to get to know their neighbors, but they'll also have some space to have some privacy in their everyday lives. During the American Revolution, this little hamlet was known as Storm's Corner, but in 1876, residents decided that it would be more aptly named Valley Cottage. There are two legends regarding the name; one is that it was named for the house nearest the railroad station, and the other is that it was named after a horse. Regardless, the quaint name of Valley Cottage has stuck, and its residents enjoy the charm of this small town to this day. See more

Finding condos for rent in Valley Cottage is almost no different than renting an apartment in a big complex. The real difference is the ownership. Condos are owned by individuals within the same building. However, apartments in a large complex are owned by a single landlord or property management group.

Sometimes the price of condos in Valley Cottage may prove cheaper. The owners are often moving onto a new home or leaving the city and just need someone to cover the costs. Apartment complexes are designed to deal with tenant issues, make repairs, and care for the property. Condo owners will still deal with repairs and upkeep but may need more time to address a problem, especially if they don’t live nearby. However, condo owners have a more vested interest in the property and keeping their tenants happy to reduce turnover.

Choose the best condos for rent in Valley Cottage that meet your wishlist for budget, amenities, and layout. You probably won’t notice the difference between the condos and apartments you tour.
