I think I am starting to fall in love with townhouses. Having my own bathroom is kind of a must, and most townhouses provide that. Many of them also provide granite top kitchen counters and a nice fridge. Last Friday, I looked at a townhouse off 85th (liked it, but I would need to take care of his dog, decently priced rent, owner/guy seems a bit strict-he's never lived with a roommate before other than his ex) Last night I looked at Townhouse #2 with two women living there. One of them was the owner. Room has its attached bathroom, downstairs, rent includes all utilities(wifi & cable TV, too) and I could see myself getting along with them because they're very laid back as well. The only downside about the place is that the kitchen is small(would not be able provide enough space for me, and their fridge would be too small for 3 people.) Just now, I looked at Townhouse #3. Brand new, the guy just bought it 2 months ago. He's a total nerd, but I would definitely get along with him(would be able to have someone to play video games with!) loved the kitchen and my own room w/ bathroom, but the rent is the most expensive out of all 3.
I am still waiting to hear back from Townhouse #1 to see what his decision is. Townhouse #2 seems to like me, but they do have some people scheduled to look at the place, too. Townhouse #3 is "first come first serve."
Would I be willing to spend more money to live in a spacious townhouse, or would I be willing to take someone else's dog out for a walk everyday? Or would I be willing to have a smaller room and share a small kitchen while not spending as much for rent monthly?
As you can tell, I really don't have a gender preference of who I want to live with. Jason shouldn't have a problem with that either. I mean, come on, I'm an adult. :)
I totally wish I could afford to be a homeowner right now.
