10,000 Apartments, Houses, & Townhomes for Rent in Indiana

The price for Indiana rentals all depends on location. The most expensive area is Carmel, for both one-bedroom and two-bedroom rentals. The place with the most affordable rentals is usually Terre Haute, with considerably lower prices for both one-bedroom and two-bedroom units.

While many suburban homes with yards accommodate pets, there are also pet-friendly apartments. Indiana renters with dogs and cats who are looking at listings in densely-populated metros should apply early and ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on breed and weight. Because pet acceptance is typically more limited in older multifamily buildings and condos with HOAs, it's best to prioritize single-family homes with yards — especially if you have a large dog or multiple pets. Don't forget to budget for pet rent and non-refundable fees.

Indiana rentals are home to a growing retirement community, and many residents choose to live in 55+ communities and age-restricted housing. When searching for senior housing, Indiana renters should target areas like Jeffersonville, Noblesville, and Valparaiso. These smaller senior-oriented markets typically have lower costs and less competition than major metros, which translates to shorter wait times. Either way, be sure to factor potential delays from long waitlists into your moving plan. And don't forget to verify age requirements, as rules vary between communities.

Typically, job hubs and college towns are the best places to find short-term and furnished rentals. Indiana's inventory is also spread across areas with many traveling healthcare workers, such as South Bend, Lafayette, and Fort Wayne. To streamline the process of finding flexible lease agreements and furnished homes for rent in Indiana, use Rentler's 'furnished amenities' and 'lease length' filters.

Besides popular metros and Downtown Indy, renters can also find luxury rentals in Zionsville and near Mass Ave. These areas have upscale apartments with unique amenities, as well as suburban homes with premium finishes. The best way to gear your search toward Indiana's luxury rentals is to use Rentler's 'year built' filter. Then, sort the results by highest price first. Because most high-end properties are new builds with expensive price points, these filters zero in on the available inventory.
