I have posted rentals. I am in NYC area. I was never requested to pay a fee.
Yes of course since, unless you're a broker, your rentals posts clearly don't fall into the (already mentioned) paid categories: Posting fees for jobs in 18 metro areas, brokered NYC apartments, and therapeutic services.

PHP is an oddity -- the syntax is okay, and since PHP5 it actually has some nice features like interfaces that move it toward an optional-static-typing model.

This requires a decent coder of course, but this is easy accomplished too, since the bad ones have all gone with PHP.
