Hi! My current roommate is leaving due to family health reasons. Would love to find someone chill and friendly to take over her lease (not sublease) and resign in November. I intend to resign and ideally looking for someone long-term who would like to stay in the apartment for at least a full year.
Ideal candidate:
- good communication: totally ok with just being roommates, but friendliness and healthy ways of communicating are essential for a shared space.
- respectful: this is home, and i’d like for us both to feel at ease!
- tidy and willing to clean: i try to keep things relatively organized and do chores on my weekend.
- lgbtq+ friendly!
Building & location perks:
- third floor walk up
- your bedroom faces the street and has amazing morning light. My roommate says that on the weekends and in the summer it can get kind of rowdy. Nothing too terrible. There will be occasional honking & sirens but that’s city life.
- closet space and individual bathroom
- in-unit laundry (washer and dryer)
- dishwasher
- bluetooth keypad for easy entry
- stainless steel farmhouse sink
- small, chill building with friendly neighbors
- roof access
- several citi bike docks close by
- 5 minute walk to Jefferson L & ~15 min walk to Central M
- near maria hernandez park
- there's a climbing gym down the street if you're into that
- many grocery stores, bodegas, coffee shops, and restaurants
- so so many bars and clubs nearby: House of Yes, Elsewhere, Ornithology, Bossa Nova, Three Diamond Door, Starr Bar, KCBC
- see floor plan for dimensions (the apt is a mirror of this)
My current roommate has been living here for the past 3 years and purchased most of the common area furniture, so if you have a lot of furniture yourself - great!
Utilities: Verizon internet $25/mo per person & ConEd ~$65/mo per person (varies by season and rates)
If you're interested, please tell me a little about yourself, your routine/work schedule, and priorities with a space! I'll want to coordinate a FT chat first and then sort out a time for you to come visit.
29M, gay, use he/him pronouns. I work in climate for an industrial real estate firm and go to the office Monday-Wednesday. I’m originally from Lithuania but have moved a lot before settling down in New York almost 3 years ago. I like to be active and will typically spend my free time bouldering, going for a run, occasionally going hiking/camping or catching up on a book for my book club. I don't have any pets.
I like for the apt to be a peaceful place and will typically see friends outside but don’t mind if you have friends over a few times each month as long as it’s not super rowdy.
Current tenant
To apply you’ll need recent pay stubs and proof of income, reference from a previous apartment, 1 mo rent (your portion) & security deposit ($1775). You'll be signing on to the current lease with me, replacing my roommate.
