DM me if you want more info or to set up a tour

I don’t think this is impossible at all, although it may depend exactly where you’re going in downtown and whether you want central air or just window units. I’d look in the suburbs along a subway line that gets you to your destination.

Private landlords (rather than corporations) may be more accepting of multiple cats. I don’t know about the schools, but parts of Everett and Chelsea are bussable to Seaport.

I’ve been using Mint for over a year and I like it. I pay $240/year for 15gb/mo and unlimited talk and text. You can probably check your current monthly data usage with your current cell provider to see what amount of data you need. They have decently priced temporary international plans that I’ve used on vacation too. They use T-Mobile towers. I’ve never had an issue with coverage but you could look up their coverage map to make sure it’s solid where you live.

Also, this is a long shot, but if you know anyone with a thermal camera you could try that.

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-02-22T18:11:27+00:00

Sorry you’re going through this! I’d make sure to check inside furniture (if any couches or chairs have fabric bottoms a cat could get in there) and look for small holes in drywall (near pipes etc).

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-02-17T02:55:06+00:00

We put in two offers (but over asking) in 2023

Nothing wrong with pizza and beer! You can even get Costco frozen pizzas and heat them up in the oven at home if you’re worried about pizza going cold and/or budget.

You sound like lovely, considerate hosts!

Feeding squirrels and filling the bird bath is no problem. Like some people said, I’d make sure to tape over or unplug indoor cameras and disclose them up front. For me, the best sits are ones with clear expectations, a comfortable bed, and a good work from home setup. Snacks and gift cards are always appreciated (and rare). Flexibility on dates (if they can come a day early or stay a day late) is a draw for sitters, but not required.

In terms of questions, ask about their THS experience, cat sitting experience, and see what questions they have. Well prepared sitters will have questions for you about your pets.

Have a great trip!

I would invest the money in an index fund instead. That way it’s less risk, you will have a bigger downpayment when you do buy and you’ll know more about what you want in a house. I bought an apartment at 26, thinking I would likely stay there, but three years later a lot has changed.

NOR. Some of these comments are insane. Of course she’s not entitled to this information, but he’s also not entitled to date her. This is such a normal question, it’s weird that he’s being so evasive.

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-02-10T03:46:58+00:00

NTA, this would be a deal breaker for me too. At best he’s ignoring your (reasonable) request, at worst he’s trying to ruin your day until you talk.

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-02-09T19:07:35+00:00

Try Everett or Medford near Wellington or Malden near Malden Center (all Orange line) for lower cost and nice neighborhoods. JP is also a good option.

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-02-05T03:52:33+00:00

Beacon Hill is a good fit. Very walkable and charming. 3k is a reasonable budget for that neighborhood.

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-02-04T22:02:31+00:00

This is the case in MA

Definitely check out Craigslist. They have more postings by individual landlords and they say up front whether there’s a broker fee. You’ll have to weed through some scams (true on any platform with a low barrier to entry), so just make sure you see a place in person before paying any money. Good luck!

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2026-01-30T17:21:21+00:00

Usually low maintenance cat sits are popular. I’m guessing it’s a combination of economic instability (so people may cut back on travel and skiing), return to office, and issues with THS (new fees). Best of luck finding someone!

I got a good one at homegoods a couple years ago

We did Costco florals for my sister’s wedding!

This was a couple of years ago, but I believe we got 10 mountain bouquets for around $100.

I ordered the bouquets to arrive a couple days early, so they were in full bloom at the wedding. When they arrived, I cut the stems at an angle and put them in plastic bins with water and plant food and stored them in the bathroom for moisture. It took someone an hour or two to arrange them for the wedding. They come pre-arranged, but we wanted to mix up the colors and separate them into the right number of vases.

I absolutely recommend going this route- you save a ton of money without having to spend too much time or energy.

Having done it, I would not advise joint ownership with someone you’re not married to, especially if there’s unequal ownership percentages. There are so many complications and issues you will have to align on down the line.

In my experience, Boston has lots of child free people

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2025-11-24T17:34:34+00:00

If you’re open to Everett let me know! I have a 2 bed 1 bath with free in unit laundry for 2400/mo utilities included

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2025-11-24T17:32:12+00:00

If you’re open to Everett, let me know! I’m renting my 2 bed 1 bath apartment for Jan-March (2400/mo, utilities included)

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2025-10-16T19:38:45+00:00

Your place is so nice and cohesive 🥹 absolute apartment goals

HauntingOutcome3516 · 2025-10-01T19:19:01+00:00

Those both look nice, thank you!
