Came across an ad on craigslist for a room to rent but when I contacted the person who made the ad they were extremely sketchy, wouldn’t answer any of my questions fully. After a few emails back and forth they told me that to sign the lease and get the room, which at that point I still hadn’t even seen in person, I had to send a money order/cashiers check for the first and last months rent. I asked to arrange a viewing of the apartment and was given the run around. Needless to say I did not go through with that rental. After that I found Roomster online and decided to give it a shot after reading some positive reviews. I cant say the site is perfect but I found it to be much more resourceful than anything I’ve come across online. Tons of rooms at various budgets and they have a pretty good user interface that’s easy to use and has a nice design.
