Another Thread About Renting or Room-mating!

Hi folks! As you can tell, this is a thread about renting an apartment ITP or maybe finding someone to room with. I'm 27 years old, male, currently living in Gwinnett county and commuting to Buckhead daily. I have two cats that sleep all day and wake up to poop, eat, or get better positioning in the sunlight. I am at work often, and when I am home I tend to just hang out, have a beer, play some guitar(quietly) or video games. But I love going to see live comedy and music.

As far as what I can pay and what area I'd like to live in, it's pretty simple. I don't particularly want to pay more than $700 a month. A studio would be fine, but the more sq footage the better. Preferably in the North Atlanta area. I have my own car so being near MARTA isn't necessary. I'm really just looking for an affordable place in a decent neighborhood much closer to work.

Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks, reddit.

I'll have a place to rent in January, but it's closer to EAV.

could you imagine someone commuting from eav to buckhead?

Nope, but I just mentioned it, in case somebody else was looking.

I don't see him renting a place for $700 in buckhead either, which is why I gave him the Zillow link so he could find a place as close to that price as he can and see if it's possible.

Whereas mine will be renting for $750/month here soon, but it's about average for my area.

Do you have any more info that you could give me in a private message? And don't forget: cats.

My name is rachel and I have a large room and bathroom available in a 2 story 2 bed 2.5 bath townhome. I am moving in with my boyfriend and looking for some one to sublet my space until the lease is up in July. My roommate is a 26 year old georgia tech graduate who works a 9 - 5 job and tutors on the side. Cats are okay. Rent is 1200 split 2 ways and utilities vary but are usually 75 a person. In the winter the power bill sky rockets so you might pay up to 100 for power. Comcast is 50 a month and power varies. It is a quiet complex in sandy springs very close to 400 and 285. The place has a washer and dryer so u can do laundry . Let me know if u have any more questions!!

Please x-post to r/AtlHousing. It's pretty dead, but if more people will x-post there, maybe it will pick up.

Thanks for the replies: sorry it took me a while to get back.

and lol at commuting from EAV to Buckhead. I drive 30 miles one way as it is, so if I hit that 7am or 5pm traffic I'm screwed right now.

Checking out the Zillow link now.
