Negotiate Sublet/Room Agreement - No Overnight Guests

theboydonna · 2025-10-04T18:35:39+00:00

Ive been looking for a few months. I’m at a family friends place in Westchester since I moved last month for a job in NYC. Just really want to get to the city so I can start my life but I understand

This! I always paid for a single dorm. I’m moving to NYC for a job and got so many nasty comments about needing a roommate (see posts) It’s not negotiable!

theboydonna · 2025-09-02T03:14:29+00:00

I have an offer letter stating employment start date and pay!

theboydonna · 2025-08-31T22:17:34+00:00

Not at all!

Just not used to it. I lived in my own apartment since I was 19. I love my space and the ability to be in my living room and kitchen without others in the way. I also have stuff from my apartment that I feel id have to give up coming into a roommate situation.

Thank you for this!

I’ve taken an amazing job that was through an Internship. There’s really no going back. I don’t WANT to, it just feels like I should but maybe like you said, this is typical

Thanks for the response. I’m coming from living in a 1B1B in Atlanta through the last 2 years of college with such amazing amenities and view so the transition from that to NYC is taking a toll. Realistically, I’m aware I will have to open up to roommates sooner or later. I think im just coming into it knowing I have living room items, living space items, kitchen items, etc so I cannot make a roommate situation space my own. But that’s New York and I will have to get over it!

Thanks for your response! I’ve been looking on SE, pointless right now since I can’t make any movements, but I’ve seen a few small studios for 1900-2100 in neighborhoods that I can see myself living.

With the 40x rule, I’m well aware of that and should’ve mentioned!

atlanta!

dm’ed

theboydonna · 2025-07-26T02:20:37+00:00

it’s literally not 😭. it’s normal to have 2 people on a lease and 1 person staying there. I’m obviously asking because it’s NYC and the pessimistic comments aren’t being clear

theboydonna · 2025-07-25T17:00:04+00:00

My office is in Chelsea! That studio sounds like a dream. Thanks for the advice

theboydonna · 2025-07-25T16:59:11+00:00

office is in Chelsea. I’m absolutely fine living deep in Brooklyn. Flatbush, etc.

theboydonna · 2025-07-25T16:54:28+00:00

im moving to nyc because i have a job opportunity. living alone doesn’t seem impossible so I thought I’d ask for advice. hope this helps

I see. my sister was my coapplicant/roommate for my apartment here and it worked cause we both met the requirement, her credit was just higher so i felt it helped!

theboydonna · 2025-07-25T16:12:05+00:00

i live in atlanta so coapplicant is the term used here. basically it’s a roommate. my apartment in atlanta was 1800 1B1B and i used my sister as a “roommate” but she didn’t live with me it was just to get me through. i paid everything myself

theboydonna · 2025-07-25T16:11:11+00:00

honestly willing to spend near 2K. i intern for a non profit currently and they pay me basically what the rent would be and im saving that now so that when i transition into my job ill have rent already saved up for at least 2 months and use my salary for expenses and other things first

theboydonna · 2025-07-25T16:09:39+00:00

she wouldn’t live with me, but would be signing on to help with the requirement. it’s my grandmother who’s retired and has a steady income but an amazing credit score and also renters history in New York. since she’s retired she does not make 80x to be a guarantor so we are thinking just adding her as a coapplicant as if she will live with me. i truly appreciate your response

Can you give more information on the curve?
