Summer Subleaser?

[matt_from_WI]

Hey,

I'm in Physical Therapy grad school in Wisconsin, and I will be completing a clinical at Altru from June 4- August 24th.  I am trying to line up some housing for the summer, and I figured that checking with UND students would be a great place to start.  I'm a single guy coming up for the summer, and my only request is that your place allows pets. I'd love to bring my 2 year old (well behaved) yellow lab with me.  If you are at all interested in subletting this summer, please email me and we can talk about it.  I'm willing to pay your current lease for those three months.  I appreciate the consideration.  Talk to you soon,

Matt

I would suggest you try the UNDerground (http://www2.und.edu/org/underground/) and advertise there (it's free).  You're likely to get a lot more interest--that's where all the buying/selling/renting/swapping goes on.

Best of luck!  My place doesn't allow pets, sorry

I think you must have a UND email address to post on Underground...

[Sal Atticum]

Oh.  If he wants, I would post it for him.

[matt_from_WI]

Thanks mburtonk. I checked that UNDerground out. I appreciate the offer on posting for me. When would you recommend would be the best time to post that ad if I want to find a place for June, July and August. How impossible do you think finding a place that will allow pets will be? Just curious. Thanks again for the help.

I started looking in March and found a place in early April that I could move into. There are a lot of May grads tied to August-August leases that might even give you a sweet deal if they're in a hurry to get out of town.

I *might* be gone next summer, but I'm not sure how my roommate feels about living with a guy, and I'm not sure they'd allow a golden retriver in our building. I think we''re only allowed lap dogs.

[Sal Atticum]

Depends on your definition of 'lap dog,' I suppose.  What if you have a really big lap?

[matt_from_WI]

Yeah, I don't have a big lap, but she will still try and hop up on the couch and sit on you.  When does the academic year start and end? I was guessing most students who go home for the summer would be gone by June 1, and that classes probably dont' start until after Labor Day.  That would work perfectly with my clinical schedule at Altru.  You said most leases go Aug-Aug out there? I guess as long as someone is staying at the same place, it wouldn't be a problem for a subleaser.  Is the weather getting nasty out there yet? It's 30 and it just snowed out here. I'm guessing the weather is pretty similar between La Crosse and GF.  Thanks again for all the info and advice!

[Sal Atticum]

It snowed right before Halloween, but we haven't had anything stick since then.  If you want me to post something on the UNDerground for you, write me up an ad, and I'll put it up whenever you want me to.

La Crosse, eh?  That's a nasty cross country team.
