About the room
Remember renting that overpriced shoebox with a landlord who treated you like a suspect? Yeah, that’s not me. I used to teach college. I’ve seen enough stressed-out young adults get absolutely hosed by rental prices. So here’s the deal:
I have a cozy, gated, super safe little condo at 3125 N Buffalo Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89128—Desert Shores, north Summerlin, one of the nicest parts of Vegas. 950sq ft—small but mighty. Washer, dryer, full kitchen, high-speed internet, and a patio where you can drink coffee and pretend you’re in a movie montage. The room I’m renting is small but has its own little patio. Think “efficient like a sailboat cabin,” not “claustrophobic nightmare.”
Rent: $450. That’s everything. Power, water, trash, internet, and unlimited access to my mediocre cooking.
Start date: July 1st. Yes, that’s soon. Yes, we can make it work.
Now, a tiny moment of honesty: Right now, the place is a bit messy. Not “biohazard” messy. Not “hoarders” messy. More like “professor went through finals week and forgot what a broom is” messy. A little clutter. A few boxes. The cat knocked over a plant last week and I’ve been handling it through emotional negotiation rather than a dustpan.
But here’s the good news—we will fix it together. You’re not walking into a disaster. You’re walking into a place with good bones and a temporary case of “I gave up for two weeks.” I’ll clean. You’ll clean. We’ll throw on some music, blast through it in an afternoon, and then it’ll look exactly like the pictures I posted (spotless, glorious, ready for company). Think of it as a team-building exercise with low stakes and high reward.
What you’re really getting:
A gated, safe neighborhood in Desert Shores (north Summerlin).
A small private patio (perfect for morning coffee or late-night overthinking).
Full access to the whole condo 24/7. No “renters stay in their cave” rules.
A former professor who will cheer for you like a proud dad when you do literally anything responsible.
A cat who will eventually love you more than me, because cats are traitors like that.
You’ll fit in if:
You’re a guy roughly 18–35 who doesn’t enjoy chaos for sport.
You see a cat and think “friend,” not “sneezing trigger.”
You can clean up after yourself like an actual adult.
You’re okay with the phrase “rent possible starting July 1st—it’s a bit messy but we will fix it” and you think, “Yeah, I can work with that.”
Analogies to help you decide:
This rental is to other rentals what a home-cooked meal is to gas station sushi.
Living here is like having a cool uncle who respects your space but will also text you “did you eat today?”
The current mess? That’s just the before picture in a makeover montage. You get to be the hero with a sponge.
What I’m NOT looking for:
Drama kings, professional victims, or people who leave wet towels on the floor (the cat will find them and sit on them out of spite).
Anyone who thinks “clean” is negotiable. We’ll fix the mess together, but after that? We keep it nice.
Seriously though: I want someone who doesn’t feel like a renter. I want someone who feels like part of the weird little family—me, the cat, and you. You’ll have keys, freedom, privacy, and a surprisingly good deal because I’d rather help someone than rip them off. Most rental places treat you like an ATM. I treat you like a human who sometimes forgets to take out the trash.
Pictures attached: That’s the place when it was spotless. That’s our goal. We’ll get there by July 1st. Promise.
Questions? Send a message here or call/text me. I’m friendly, I answer fast, I’ll send you a current messy pic if you want to see the “before” with your own eyes. I’ll even tell you the cat’s real name (it’s ridiculous).
Come see the place. Worst case: you waste 15 minutes and pet a cat. Best case: you find your new home starting July 1st.
Let’s fix it up together.
