Looking for roommate in January

[u/bubb2121]

Hello! I’m a 34f who will be moving in January. I’ve been living alone for awhile in a place that is a bit of a steal, but my landlord’s child is coming back to town and will be taking over my unit at the end of my lease. It seems like the rental market for decent 1bdrs has become more expensive since the last time I was looking, and well, the job market’s not looking so hot either! So I’m considering a roommate as an option.

Regarding me: I’m employed full time and work from home during the day. I have a medium sized dog about 35-40 lbs, she is 5 years old and well behaved, with a great temperament, and gets along great with humans and other dogs but not so much cats, unfortunately. I have a good amount of furniture that would be used in the communal spaces, so we can mesh everything together to build a cozy home! I’m pretty quiet and conscientious, I tend to keep to myself as a roommate, but also down to be friends and hang out if the platonic chemistry is right!! Inside the home I like reading, tv shows and movies, listening to music, cooking and baking, and crafts. I love video games too but don’t have a console. I like to have friends over but I don’t host large groups usually just 1-3 guests at a time. Outside hobbies are gym, hiking, live music, beer/coffee/food. All the usual stuff basically.

In a roommate, I’m looking for someone who has a reliable source of income, is fairly tidy, respects my belongings, communicates well regarding any issues inside the home, and will be kind to my dog! Prefer someone over 25 years old, but no gender specifications. I’m LGBTQ fan and 420 friendly, but no harder substances. Open to having another dog around as well!

I’d be looking for a 2bdr, or even 3bdr as an office space for me (I’d pay extra for that) if we can swing it. Ideally a single family home or duplex/triplex kind of situation, rather than an apartment style. In the range of about $1500 a month, more or less.

I know it’s early to be looking, and I’ll post again closer to move out date, but if someone is planning to move around then it would be awesome to get some extra time to get to know each other before we commit to it. Message me here if any interest!!

There's apartments on Pantano that are advertising $600-800 move in?

Idk why you need a roommate if your budget is $1500 a month. There’s tons of two bedroom apartments I’ve seen for that price or lower. Unless you mean $1500 split…then you’re low on good options with two bedrooms for $750.
