About the roomies
I am a 53 year-old male high school English teacher hoping to rent one or both extra bedrooms. Although I am doing this for the extra income, I always hope to find people I will get along well with. What’s most important to me is courtesy, and I think cleanliness in a shared space is one form of courtesy.
When my work schedule allows, I like to cook, and sometimes I may be able to share what I prepare.
I’ll ask you to sign a standard month-to-month lease and pay the last month’s rent in advance. $500 security deposit. Background and credit check required. I will rent the room to one person only.
If you are interested, please tell me a little about yourself, your job, what has brought you to the area, etc. so that I’ll know you are a real person. I’ll respond with the more information about myself and more questions about you. If you are still interested, we’ll set up a time for you to see the house. For the time being. Finally, even though I should not have to say this, this is NOT a personal ad.
A few caveats: I’m looking for someone who cleans up after him/herself, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. I can offer on-street parking only, so if you drive a large SUV, the parking situation won’t be ideal. Storage space is rather limited; I can only offer the space you see in the photos of the bedroom and closet.
