Two’s Company

  1. I’ve found one place through myidealhome, and two through craigslist — but you’re right, the myidealhome (previously rentbc) definitely has a slightly … “better” clientele, for various definitions of better.

    I first found out about it because I worked in internet real estate. Go figure. šŸ™‚

  2. I’ve always posted on http://www.myidealhome.ca – it’s an independent business, but has gained the contract as the official off-campus housing board for SFU, UBC & BCIT. Everyone I’ve found off it has been a student, or someone who’s gone to post-secondary (or has friends who do) and knows about it. Not that university is a fair qualifier for normal people, but I find it brings in the smallest amount of sketchy applicants (as opposed to Craigslist or the newspaper).

  3. YAY! I’m so happy you found what sounds like a decent roommie! That’s awesome news…

    I’ve been wondering what it would be like to actually have a female roommate, but the two guys that I live with are pretty decent all-in-all. (As you know)

    How did you find Ray?

  4. heh, that’s the same type of TV my mom has — warning, they take up a LOT of space. My parents ended up building recessed space in the wall (the other side of that wall was a storage shed thing accessible from outside the house) for the TV because even in their rather large family room, it was taking up too much space. Rear projection TV’s mean they’re 2-3 feet deep at least.

    That said? I miss my parents TV. I don’t even like watching TV all that much, and heck, I’ve got a fairly decent sized TV myself (34″) but there’s just something about an over 60″ TV that tickles my fancy.

    I’m suddenly reminded of a Bizarro comment:
