Hello all,

I'm finally getting out of this college thing and have a job lined up at a place close to the airport. I'm not really familiar with the housing situation in the area, anyone have any suggestions? Looking to rent for the first year probably.

Thanks,

Drew

Granted you said you're looking to rent for the first year, but there's a cheap condo (read also: apartment) for sale next door to me if you're interested.

What's your price range?

It kind of depends on if I get a roommate or not. I'm kind of spoiled down here with $325 rent and one roommate. What does the place next to you run?

Edit: where is it?

Asking price 150, you could probably snag for 125.

SW Portland

How big? I'm not sure if I want to jump into buying something quite yet though... I kinda want to look around first for a bit.

800-850sq ft
2br 1bath
2 parking spots (uncovered)
no garage
1 storage closet
shared laundry

Listen to the cats scream at night

Please don't limit it to a specific timeframe.

is it just you, or is your sister coming along as well?  :dance:

haha, funny guy. What a memory you have Ed. No, Paula isn't moving in. I've held the wedding bells off this long and will for a bit more. You got something?

have you found anything?  Where will you be working....... baggage handler @ PDX?   :number1:   are you wanting to stay in OR or move to WA?

I haven't found anything for sure yet, but I would like to soon. I'm going to be working at Silver Eagle Manufacturing near the airport. Oregon or Washington, I'm just trying to keep the drive short.

God, looking for houses sucks. I've been driving all over NE Portland for the last two days and keep finding shit. Anyone interested in moving into a house? If I could get a good roommate, I'd love to look for a 2 or 3 bedroom house with a garage. These tiny row apartments for 700-800 a month suck.

P.S I mean rent. I don't think I'm going to purchase for a little bit. I need to get settled in a work first.

HA and for a second there is sounded like you 'found' yourself in Corvallis and wanted a man-mate giving out a tiny row 700-800x a mouth suck. The 'garage', I don't even want to know about.

Sorry Ed, but that just sounds like wishful thinking on your end.  I didn't pick ANY of that up from his post.... :thumbsup:

HHmm, I wasn't referring to everyone finding themself in Corvallis, unless he did it with you????  :poke:

Wow, roller coaster of a day I've had.

I found a great house in vancouver (3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, big attached garage, $900) only 15 mins from work. So I'm down here packing up all of my stuff getting ready to move in on Friday when I get a call from the HR lady at my new job. She informs me that they are delaying my start date for at least 30 days (possibly indefinitely, but they don't know yet) and I'm supposed to hang tight and wait for news. Great. Four days before I'm supposed to start working.

Anyone want to move into a great place close to 205? I may need the help with rent.

Holy ditto

"Ed is gay"

sound familiar? it should.


Shit man, you wanna complain about rent, try living in Seattle. heysoos!

glad to hear you found a place. Sorry to hear about the job delay and hope you find out something soon.

Just chiming in for my sig.
