Neighborhood Rental Roundup: Shares Edition
In the market for a roommate share? You’re in luck, because we’ve pulled three share listings that have recently hit the area market. Check ’em out and let us know what you think.
11th Street and 4th Avenue
Price: $700
Size: 1-bed in 3-bed, 2-bath home
Available: Now
Details: The room in this rental is on the “small” side, but the apartment (shown above) makes it worth the squeeze. You’re looking at 2 floors of living space, with a modern kitchen (complete with dishwasher), dining area, living room and full bath on the first floor. The second floor has the three bedrooms, an office, a second full bath, and access to the roof. The current roommates are a man and a woman (not a couple) in their late 20s, early 30s and are hoping to find someone around the same age. Applicants must have employment and pass a credit check. It’s also noted in the ad that the building’s owners are an elderly couple that live on the first two floors, so if you’re looking for a party pad, this is not the right place. First months rent and security deposit required for move in. No pets.

725 4th Avenue at 23rd Street
Price: $733
Size: 1-bed in a 3-bed apartment
Available: September
Details: Two non-smoking males, one in finance and one in film, are looking to fill their third bedroom. The exiting roommate will even leave the bedroom’s furniture “at minimal cost to you” if you need a few extra things. You must pass a credit check and provide one month’s rent as a deposit. They’ll be available during the first two weeks of September to show the apartment to anyone interested.

16th Street and 8th Avenue
Price: $850
Size: 1-bed in a 2-bed, 1-bath apartment
Available: September 1
Details: The available room in this unit is not a bad size, 220-square-feet, but there is no common area, so if you spend a lot of time at home, prepare to spend it all in your room. On the other hand, you’re only one block from Prospect Park, so that’s a nice bonus. The current tenant is a 31-year-old male and asks that prospective roommates “be gainfully employed, able to pay bills, clean, communicative, and (crucially) not crazy.” The room will be available to show on the evening of August 31 and all day on September 1. If you’d like to take a look, drop him a line with a brief description of y ourself and when you can come see the apartment.
