Hello,

** PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE TEXT AND TO TELL ME A BIT ABOUT YOURSELF IN YOUR MESSAGE, I won’t respond to questions already answered in the ad. A little effort on reading and communication is very much appreciated ;)
There’re many details but I’d rather be honest to save us some time on the rest of the process (message first, then video meeting, then visit and references check) and find a good match. Thanks a lot for your understanding **

I’m looking for a roommate, starting July 1st 2024, until Jun 30th 2025, with possibility to renew the lease in July 2025. Small bedroom available in apartment shared with 1 person and 1 cat : 750$/month (internet/Hydro/Gaz/Insurance included) +25$ shared expenses for house cleaning supplies*.

After a few years peacefully sharing the place with my roommate, she's leaving to focus on other projects. I’m looking for someone reliable and chill, who shares a few interests with me, so we can have a nice vibe at home, but always respecting each other’s private space :)

I’m 33, man, living in MTL for a decade, in that apartment for the past 5 years, I have a cat and I work a lot from home. I like to chat, enjoy the balcony during summertime, watch movies/docs/series, I listen to a lot of music. I’m a smoker, but I don’t smoke inside, except for 420 if outside temperature allows us to properly ventilate the place in the meantime. I try to make sure the smells don’t stay inside (smoke, cooking, bathroom, cat litter). I keep the place very clean and neat, especially bathroom and kitchen. I love to cook for friends, and have interesting talks, with an occasional drink.

Important information, so we can get along :)

_ Being serious, clean, financially stable, open minded, chill and queer friendly.

_ Looking for someone very respectful towards the neighbors, or the apartment, or the furniture/appliances/kitchenware that I share with the roommate.

_ Smoking : forbidden inside - Ok on the balcony, with respect to the neighbors.

_ 420 friendly : always with respect to the roommates - not inside during winter, or if too cold outside to properly ventilate the room - not in the same room as the cat - Ok on the balcony, with respect to the neighbors.

_ Music : During cooking and shower, I love to listen to loud music and sing ! Trigger warning for sensitive ears ;)

_ House cleaning : I’d rather we keep the kitchen and bathroom clean 24/7. We do the rest whenever we can, no rush but we have to take part.

_ *Shared expenses for cleaning supplies :
No debts between friends or roommates! We have to take part equally and honestly on the expenses related to house cleaning supplies (with an app, keeping the receipts) if we share :
-------------->> Garbage bags, house cleaning products (safe for the cat), laundry detergent, sponges, aluminum, dishwashing soap, toilet paper, tissues and hand-soap for the bathroom, ice-breaking salt for the outdoor stairs, etc. In my experience, account for a minimum of 25$ monthly participation, for each roommate.
-------------->> Sharing things such as spices/oils/vinegars/sugar : ok to share equally ONLY IF we agree and are being honest regarding how much we personally use. Then, we can include it with the shared expenses for cleaning supplies, on the app and by keeping the receipts.
-------------->> Otherwise, no problem if everyone wants to have his own separate stock.

_ Respecting each other’s belongings : very important for me that we do not use each other’s stuff without asking first (food or else).

_ Watching our energy consumption : it’s an old building with poor isolation, so we have to be very careful regarding our energy use, as much to avo
