Roomate Wanted for 2bed/2BR Apt 11/1
I'm looking for a roommate to be added to my lease for a 2bedroom/2bathroom apartment for a 1 year lease beginning on 11/1/19. I still have not received the rent increase from the landlord, but the apartment is rent controlled, and rent for the last 4 years has been $1100, $1176, $1204, & is currently $1225, so I'm not expecting a significant increase for 2019-2020.
Some stats about the apartment
Available Bedroom
* Features a full bathroom in the bedroom
* Easily fits a full-sized bed, dresser, and desk
* Spacious closet
* Skylight which lets in a substantial amount of natural light during the day
* Does not have any windows, but does have an escape hatch that can be opened to let in fresh air
* The quieter of the two rooms, far from the street and all the city noise.
About the Apartment
* 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (private bathroom in the available room)
* Spacious kitchen, featuring an island that seats 4, and dishwasher
* Central heating/ AC
* Laundry in the building, right outside the apartment's front door
* Railroad-style apartment with bedrooms on opposite sides of the apartment
* All furniture in the common areas is mine, so that area is furnished.
* Ground floor apartment
* 2 minute walk to the Clinton St. bus
* 12-15 minute walk to the PATH, ferry, & NJ Transit
* 10 minute walk to Target, Acme, & Best Buy in Jersey City
* Monthly expenses vary depending on the season, but gas/electric & cable/internet combined typically range from around $85 a month to around $130 during peak heating/cooling months.
* Ideally I'd like the tenant to be added to the lease with me, and there's an application/credit check required by the landlord that I believe is either $75 or $90 (and can be situated once we figure out if we're a match).
About Me
I've been in this apartment for 4 years now, so I'm pretty settled into the space. I'm a 29 year old gay guy who mainly works from home (9-5), meaning I'm here a lot during the day. I have a big music collection and there's usually something playing during regular hours. I'm pretty low-key otherwise: I don't drink, I cook often, I like to keep a clean apartment, and I'm usually out and about with friends most nights/weekends. Ideally what I'm looking for in a roommate is someone who's responsible, on time/proactive with bills/rent and cleaning up after themselves in the common area and keeping the apartment clean. LGBT friendly is also a must.
If you got this far, congratulations. And if you got this far and have any questions or are interested in seeing the apartment/learning more, please reach out and tell me a little bit about yourself!
