Hi!

TL;DR: Stanford law student (aka Stanford Affiliated!!! Can rent anywhere!!!) seeking housing ON CAMPUS, willing to pay more than your rent (up to $350 more per quarter!!!), move in dates SUPER flexible. I am mildly funny on paper, have supreme rodent infestation removal skills, and come with Buzz Thompson's Property book ($300 value! or something like that) and access to a car.

:::THE LONG VERSION:::

Did you just move in to Rains and realize that that twin XL bed is quite a bit smaller than you remember from undergrad? Just move in to Munger and find out you are living with three very stressed out first year law students? Are in EV, and realize that your (of course Stanford approved) mastif doesn't really fit in your studio? Or, are you planning on living in your apartment, but won't be needing it until, say, the end of October?

This is where I come in! I am a second year at Stanford Law School who got screwed in the housing lottery this year, and whose housing plans just fell through. For academic reasons, I really need to live on campus. I'm looking for an on-campus sublet--beggars can't be choosers, so these are the things I don't care about: where on campus it is, if you have roommates, the gender of those roommates, and move in dates (sublet does NOT need to be even for the full quarter!). This is a win-win-win situation for everyone: you get your apartment off your hands (and extra cash!), I get on campus housing, and Stanford Housing will stop being harassed by me! Win win win. (Note that if you are a dude with roommates, we may need to do this discreetly and in that case, I'd up the bonus a bit).

BUT WAIT you ask. Subletting sounds way more complicated than just switching apartments or backing out. Well, it's not, for several reasons:

(1) given the number of people on the waitlist (happy number 24 here!), it will be difficult for you to move around until everyone is placed first.

(2) backing out right now will cost you something like $100 (I can't remember exactly).

(3) I come with many fun things! Those fun things are:

• a super super comfortable air mattress with a mattress pad and 100% cotton fitted sheet (yours to keep if you'd like) (all your roommates are welcome to use it)
• an ironing board and iron (everyone welcome to use it!)
• access to a car (either I would be the driver, or I'm down to share once I meet people) with C level parking
• Buzz Thompson's Property book (!!! this is big!!! It's like $300 and not available used or for rent)
• if your place happens to have a rodent infestation, I can use the skills I developed while living in New York this summer to get rid of them
• !!!!!!!!!AND!!!!!!!! a bonus!
  A Munger studio OR any premium studio? $100
  EV, Rains? $300
  Munger Quad or Munger 2 Bedroom? $350
  Anywhere else? ~$200, but depends on the rent of the place (will be at least $100)

Bonuses are negotiable.

This is a GREAT deal for people who will know they will just be living with their significant other all year and the room will be going to waste. Not only will you be saving money, you'll be MAKING money (I am also willing to vacate the room when your parents visit!). This is also a great situation for someone who forgot to withdraw their housing application (again, MAKING money instead of wasting it!), someone who is disappointed with their placement, or someone who just wants to do a good deed.

(A bit about me: in addition to law student-ing [reading, more reading, and more reading], I like to run and lift weights. Despite the nature of this post, I am a very quiet individual. Though I do like meeting new people and being social and am friendly, I don't have loud parties/blackout drunk fests/etc. I study most of the time in the law library. I don't smoke. I don't cook weird foods or things that smell. After a rodent infestation incident in New York this summer, I am exceptionally clean. I am originally from Seattle and will be living in Washington D.C. this summer. When I was five, I wanted to be a dinosaur when I grew up. Now, I'm thinking I'll just be a lawyer. In addition to supreme getting-rid-of-rodent-skills, I am also skilled at eating pasta and pretending to be funny.)
