Best Roommate Offer on Craigslist


Wow. If only we had a bigger bed—I mean, extra room… I would totally introduce these two to NYC. Here's the full text of the post (I cut most of it and the craigslist junk from the image above):

Hi all-

My boyfriend and I (29 and 27 years old) have recently relocated from LA to NYC and are currently seeking a space to live in long enough for us to adjust ourselves to NYC. Could be a vacant apartment, a basement, a room, just about anything at all would be fine for us really. Financially, we're able to pay up to 600 per month which is why I am putting up this ad, hoping someone has a space that they might rent. As far as the length, it's flexible but we're thinking 2-4 months.

We're straight-acting, simple and laid back and are both college graduates. We pay our bills on time and are clean and responsible.

If you have some crown-moulding or re-finishing work that you need done, we have tools not too mention tons of experience with interior finishing and are more than happy to work a trade out. I've attached some recent pics of us so you have an idea of who we are.

Thanks much.

Do they really have to mention “tools” and “experience”? That’s just cruel. Oh, and “as far as the length…” Plus, they’re “flexible.” Sigh.

Sometimes Curbed has good stuff.
