Default Best place to advertise rental property ?

Hey , can someone with real estate expiriencegive me
advice where I should advertise rental property.
Im taking posession on a new condo in december. Initially I was thinking that I will sell it right away , but market does not look so good so I decided to rent it for a while.
I looked in herald and sun to get an idea how much I should ask for , but it doesnt seem like there is a lot of ads there. Does anyone know any better site to advertise/look up rental properties???
Thank you

Cardboard signs on stop signs and street lights.

Depends on location, advise could vary (ie. if your close to a university)

Just think with the mindset of, if you were looking for a property, where would you look?

I found we got 10 times as many hits from rentfaster as we did from homerent, but I think we've actually got more renters from homerent.

Craigslist and kijiji are good too.

EDIT: And the big old sign on the front works well unless the place is really off the main roads.

Facebook is actually quite good too...provided the property is in a location with a network.

Craigslist was useless for me - I got nothing but Nigerian spam e-mails from that add.

Rentfaster worked for me but I didn't try anything other than these two.
