You must be 18+ or an emancipated minor to rent a room. Also be aware your college may require you to spend your first year in campus housing, so double check that requirement. Your parent can't sign a lease for you here, but they can pay your rent directly.
Yes, I do rent to those with zero credit and no rental history, however this isn't a "frat house" and there are rules to be followed:
* Smoking and vaping is strictly prohibited indoors, including bathrooms. There is no exception. Even with a fan on, the walls and fixtures still collect residue and contaminated air can spread throughout the house.
* Cleanliness: Residents must consistently clean up after themselves in all shared spaces. There is a standing "if you cook, you clean up" policy in the kitchen.
* Controlled substances: No alcohol (or other controlled substances) are permitted in shared living areas (this includes the fridges in the kitchen). Drunk, disruptive, or disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated. Nobody here is your dad (unless your dad actually is renting a room for some reason), so you are expected to manage yourself responsibly and not bring disruptions back into the home.
* Quiet Hours: 11pm-6am, unless all residents agree otherwise.
We have an environment that is welcoming and safe for everyone, including those under 21, so these rules, especially on controlled substances storage, are strictly enforced for safety and to limit liability. We do favor those that don't smoke/vape are non-drinkers.
