So just because someone says no to a specific city, don't rule it entirely out.
You and your wife are near my wife and my age and we also have no kids. If you come to town to look around or want some tips for exploring when looking for a rental online, give me a shout. We rented sight unseen as neither one of us had been to Phoenix before we moved. With the internet, we knew exactly what we were getting and it was a pretty smooth process actually to rent a house before moving and without visiting.

well we do have a kid under a year old, but I appreciate your willingness to help. I might just hit you up when we come down there soon.
