Apartment Update
« on: January 14, 2006, 01:05:31 pm »
First off I want to Thank ALLLLLLL of you who have been helping me out!  You're all awesome and you make me cry (Special happy tears) every day!

I JUST discovered NH's Craig's list.  Oops.  I posted an ad on there and I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything I could to do make it better.

http://nh.craigslist.org/hou/125495782.html

I left out the part about him being a service dog because in the situation of room mates I dont' want them thinking the preconcieved notion that I'm going to dampen their active social lives.  (ie:  Not be cool enough for them)  It's sad but it's the way they think.  Anyways, let me know.

I LOVE craigslist! Make sure you read the apartment ads and the roomate wanted ads, because you can find places either way.

If I were you I would leave out the part about your grandparents. I would just say a little bit about yourself (ie, you are a young working nonsmoker, you like xy&z things) and nee, and what you are looking for in an apt/roomate

I think it looks great too, but you might want to define what CGC is.....only us cool dog people would recognize the initials. 

I can't wait to hear that you've moved out and you and Nee are doing well!!  Let us know what happens, 'k?

OK I've gotten two replies.  The only problem is both are from guys.  Yeah, Matt'll love that!


Hi,
 
I have someone looking for a roommate.  I am the land lord of a 2 bedroom condo in S Nashua and will accept a dog with a dependable tenant as long as the animal is house broken and does not bark to excess.
 
The current tenant that I have is a young professional male that works off hours and weekends.  He is very quiet and respectable.   
 
Move in will be $750 ($250 as security deposit for dog)and monthly rent is $500.  References will be checked.     
 
Please click on the link for pictures of the condo.

OK I worte to perfect house man.  I didn't save the email, but it was pretty much me wanting to make sure he realized I had a huge dog, asking if there were other room mates and what they were like, explaining a bit about me and saying that I would like to drop by with my BF to check it out (Although he won't be livng there just for his piece of mind), and no replies....... ...

Hey lady...
just remember to be very careful with Craigslist. I was trying to sell my cello on there and someone inquired about it and made me a nice offer... and it turned out to be a total SCAM ARTIST!!! :o
I was so sad and insulted because I had my hopes up that someone really wanted to buy it. :( And Once I figured out the scammer's scheme I called him on it and... never heard from him again...
Alls I'm sayin is be careful, and good thinking on the bring your boyfriend scoop.
Good luck!!!!
 :)

Yeah perfect house man kind of skeeved me out.  I mean everything sounds perfect and the rent is exactly what I said I'd pay?  All I can picture are those movies on Life Time where the innocent girl gets unwittingly sold into sex slavery or house of torture or something.  My big scary machoo would protect me.  That or Neeners would eat them.

OMG OMG OMG PERFECT Apartment Update

I just got in from work and find this little gem in my in box.

Hi,
  I am looking for a roommate for my single-family home on 5 acres in Amherst, NH.  I have two dogs and lots of room for yours to run - I recently had to put my third dog down, so we are used to a three-dog household.
  I have a large bedroom and study on the first floor to rent...my own room and study and half-bath are upstairs.
  Is this something you might consider?  I am a professional woman, work full time in Manchester and am going through an amiacable divorce.
  Please let me know if you are interested - I also have two horses and room for a third, if a potential roommate is in need of horse boarding, too.


  Thanks,
Awesome lady

Hello Awesome Lady.

Actually that sounds perfect!  I'm working in Milford right now, and my parents live in Amherst.  (I also love horses, and have been riding since I was two, so if you need anyone to work them or muck out stalls or anything I'd be more than happy to help.)  If you would like to call me, my cell phone number is Ang's Number.

Thank you!

Angela
