Room in a bright apartment in central area
Hi friends,
I'm looking for a roommate for my 2 bedroom apartment. Just to get the yuckies out the way...
Requirements from management: $40 application fee, copy of ID/passport, credit check(just to be sure you're reliable), $950 deposit. (This will be a month to month lease but hoping for someone long term) As much as I love them, NO pets. (I do have fish)
Requirements from me: this is a shoes off home. If you can't respect that please, do not apply. This is also a friendly home.
About the apartment: We are on a main street so cars are constantly driving by. Neighbors are all pretty active also, if you're looking for a quite hole in the wall, this may not be the place for you. This apartment is on the second floor and we are above the parking lot so no one is below which is great. (Not so great part is you can hear/feel everyone start their cars) You can also see the parking lot through your bedroom window which can be comforting. (The balcony is also over the parking lot.) Trash day is Tuesday and it can be a rough start as they come in around 530am.. There are 2 washers and dryers downstairs that cost about 4.50 per load. Pge is typically around $60. $80-$100 during the cold season. And xfinity bill is about 146. We split both. Water and garbage are included in rent. The apartment is also very central. Take a right you're at the 24, take a left and you'll hit 80. Walgreens, Raleys, central foods, and lots of bars and restaurants near by. Wild cat canyon is just up the way also. The room itself is about 10 × 13.
Expectations of you: Pay your bills on time. Management charges $200 late fee for rent. That's a big no thanks for me. Clean up after yourself. I don't mind sharing things as long as they are respected and returned. We split household chores for main areas. Kitchen, bathroom, living area, floors. Which are usually kept up nicely if we clean after ourselves 😇
About me: Early 30's female. Been at this apartment for about 13 years now. I currently work as a chef for a rehab facility in West oakland. I'm constantly on the go and usually home late night and some weekends. I enjoy my time at home cooking, crafting, bingeing a show, tending to my plant babies or just in bed relaxing. But I'd much rather be outside, how bout that! I also enjoy good conversation and authenticity. Come real or dont come at all!
If you're still here and still feeling fancy about the place, give me a hoot! Send an email with a brief description of yourself and we'll see if we hit it off. Love and blessings. Happy home hunting 🙏🏽
