Listen, we all know the process of finding your own place is tough at worst, and tedious at best. Finding the perfect spot, setting up your own electric and gas services, and procuring your own internet is a pain in the neck. Then, after everything is settled, you might not even know anyone in your new city. Renting a room from someone looking for a roommate gives you someone to talk to, and even better, you don’t have to set up your own Wi-Fi! Or, it’s the first time you’ve been out on your own, living with someone else can cut down the costs of getting your own place. Don’t live on macaroni and cheese for the next year, find a place and rent a room instead.
