Price: $750
Size: 1-bedroom

Details: First up, is a “cozy and quiet room” with a window and a fresh coat of paint, though the listing says that you’re free to paint the walls whatever color you’d like. The common spaces are roomy, there’s rooftop access, and the unit is wifi ready. They’re showing the apartment this weekend, so email the current tenants, tell them a bit about yourself, and set up an appointment.

Prospect Avenue at 17th Street
Price: $850
Size: 1-bed in a 4-bed apartment
Available: Now
Details: Looking for something in a “bombastic location?” This rental room, located in a recently renovated apartment, comes with a bed and wardrobe. Also look for new hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings, an updated bath, and full-sized appliances in the kitchen. To set up an appointment, email the current tenants here.  

15th Street and 7th Avenue
Price: $900, plus $100 a month for utilities
Size: 1-bed in a 3-bed, 2-bath apartment
Available: February 1
Details: The last share is the most expensive, but it has a lot of perks, including exclusive use of a nice backyard and basement. The room itself features a closet, and two windows that overlook the backyard. The current tenants, who are in their late 20s/early 30s, say they’re looking for “an easygoing, clean, responsible roommate,” who is willing to stay for at least three months, but doesn’t want to stay forever, because they’d eventually like to take over the entire apartment. No pets or live-in significant others are allowed. The couple is hosting an open house on January 18, from 1pm to 4pm, so click here to send an email, tell them about yourself, and set up an appointment.
