About the room
Hello hello 🙂 My fantastic roommate is leaving me (but it’s for a good cause), so I’m looking for someone (no couple, sorry) to take over her room on March 1st! The apartment is located around the corner from Hastings/Commercial Drive on a quiet street (check the localization please), but it is a 10-minute walk from the middle of Commercial. Here is everything you need to know:
- We are on the second floor (view from the street, even if the elevator says 4th)
- It is a 2 bdr with a large living room, kitchen and a shared bathroom
- We also have a lovely balcony 🙂
- 10 min from the Skytrain if you ride bus #20
- Close to Downtown with several buses, including the R5
- The apartment is not pet-friendly (sorry)
- Laundry room in the building
- Plenty of street parking or a parking space in the garage for $100 more per month. “Garage” for bicycles too.
- Rent $1294 for the room with utilities (that we obviously share)
- A $587.5 deposit will be requested to replace my roommate’s share (it was half the rent; it just increases a little from March, darn)
- The room remains furnished, but my roommate will ask $100/$150 for the bed and furniture (or she will sell them if you don’t need them).
- The rest of the apartment is furnished.
- No, the Christmas tree doesn’t stay all year round! So… when are you moving to East Van?
About the roomies
About me: my name is Audrey, I’m 32 (yes, brutal), I have lived in Vancouver for almost two years and work in Marketing. I’m looking for someone around my age who works (or will work; newcomers are welcome, but it might be a little more complicated to get your application accepted by the agency), so no students, sorry. An important point is that I like to keep the apartment clean and tidy. And finally, my former roommates will confirm that I am super chill. I’ve said a lot already, so I will answer any questions you have about the apartment, the room or myself via DM.
