You Want It.. but not that badly!

$1250 / 2br - You want it (East Village)

We are in need of a roommate as of Feb. 1st. Please keep in mind that you will not be on our lease, as this will be a sublet situation. We ideally would like a roommate to last longer than 3 months however, we've had shitty luck finding a sane responsible roommate that pays rent/bills on time, puts toilet paper on the rolling dispenser and isn't in some sort of mental crises.

About us time!

We are a couple in our mid twenties. I'm (Lace) 25 and pbag Patrick is 27. We have solid jobs with solid INCOMES. I work in the art/design SoHo world by day and sloth around in the world by night. He works in the marketing midtown world by day and the music world by night. We have a LONG HAIRED WHITE FUR BALL CAT named Marcus. If you are allergic to cats in any way please do not respond. We are pretty laid back. We do try to get out 2 nights a week. We like to cook at home half of the week.

The spot

-Does not include utilities. Rent is 1250...40 for gas/electric...30 for cable/Internet.
-Is located on 1st ave between 13th and 14th two min away from the L and about 10 min away from almost every other train in the city.
-3 room apartment. One room for us...one room for you..and one room is a small music studio.
-The room we are renting is 10x10 with one window and one closet.
-It is unfurnished
-One bathroom..this is never an issue being that my work day starts later than most. You'll only being sharing/picking a bathroom slot with Patrick.
-One living room that we would like to share. Yes share...not hog. We do not want someone to come home and sloth all the time on the couch watching tv.
-We have a mini bar.
-We have a full kitchen equip with many appliances. You are welcome to use all.
-We have a huge LCD that we like to share. Yes, share..again not hog.
-We have one closet in the single hallway that is shared.
-We have a roof that we love and respect.

You:
-Between the ages of 24-30
-DO NOT RESPOND IF YOU CURRENTLY LIVE OUTSIDE NY. NO EXCEPTIONS.
-DO NOT RESPOND IF YOU ARE UNDER 24...UNLESS YOU ARE A RESPONSIBLE TRUST FUND.
-Must have a j.o.b.
-Proof of your j.o.b./pay stub so we know you can afford this place every month.
-Rent is due on THE FIRST OF EVERY MONTH. Do not test this, as the rent check comes out of my account and I'm tired of playing the spotting card. Quite frankly..it's ridiculous bullshit if you are past a certain age and cannot pay rent on time. I'm/We are out of patience. I/We will end the sublet agreement if rent is not paid on time and you will have 2 weeks to find another place.
-Clean! We are not anal...however if you make a mess..clean it...if the toilet is gross..clean it if it's ur turn...buy paper towels if it's ur turn...take the garbage down if it's full. It's that simple.
-If you smoke cigarettes..it's fine to a degree...we do occasionally...mostly in our room if we do or if we are having a drink. Please don't make it a habit of smoking constantly in the shared spaces.
-If you smoke the M it's fine as well...but again...don't make it a habit in shared spaces. In warmer weather...outside..go on the roof.
-No smoking in the hallway under any circumstance ever. This should be obvious, however I feel that I need to cover the bases.
-It's cool if you have a friend or 2 over once in a while...just give the heads up.
-Don't leave your shit on the roof..seriously. If you're up there with a friend have a beer or a few...THROW THEM AWAY. The roof is a pleasure..don't abuse it. We throw sweet bbq's/roof parties in the spring/summer/fall..so something to look forward to.
-Again..we have a mini bar...it is okay if you have a drink...again a drink...not the bottle. Our patience is gone with this as well. Do not feel you have the right to drink half a bottle or open an unopened bottle of ours. It's utterly disrespectful. Buy your own for the mini bar if that is the case.
-Do not feel you have the right to eat our food...it is not okay. Buy your own. If you are starving...and really don't feel like motivating...or if your like crazy sick...then hey...it happens..go ahead and grab something from our stash...tell us if you do this...and replace it asap. Not a habit....every once in a blue moon.
-No..it's not okay to use our bathroom crap..besides hand soap. Please buy your own..it's really not going to break you.

We are not looking for a friend..just someone who is sociably functional and responsible in every roommate regard. If your a decent human being then we want you. This might seem a bit oddly anal however I feel it's best to cover previous issues we've had.

To move in:
-Security asap + 1st Rent amount due on Feb 1st= $2500
-Proof of employment...a few current pay stubs will do.
-Sign a temp 3 month sublet contract. This will be terminated if rent is not paid on the first. If it's not working for you by the third month...then feel free to move on.
We'll give you ur keys once you hand over the security.

Lastly..we want to meet you! We'll respond accordingly. Please tell us about yourself and mention a few time/day frames to work with.
