關於單字find的用法?

Did you manage to find a place in Kahlua Apartment building for me?
＝ Did you manage to find me a place in Kahlua Apartment building?
find是授予動詞（dative verb）所以有兩個受詞：直接受詞＋間接受詞
me是間接受詞，a place是直接受詞
把直接受詞移到動詞後面時，間接受詞需要補一個介系詞，這裡用的介系詞就是for。

1.介系詞用to的有：give, lend, send, write, bring, hand, pass, deliver, show, teach, tell, sell, pay, owe, do, promise, offer ......
She wrote a letter to me. = She wrote me a letter.
He told a story to me. = He told me a story.

2.介系詞用for的有：buy, bring, get, leave, make, do ......
I must buy a watch for her. = I must buy her a watch.
She made a dress for me. = She made me a dress.
I found a seat for George. = I found George a seat.

3. 介系詞用of的有：ask
I must ask a favor of you. = I must ask you a favor.

英文句子的焦點在句尾，所以你要傳達訊息時，會依重點（人重要，還是事或物重要？），把該資訊移到句尾。

你沒錯。
但原文寫法/講法亦是常用的說法。或說/寫得隨便一點。
