dchenesThe place I saw tonight was at least in the running.
What I liked:
It has space, storage and sunlight, and it's pet-friendly (four things I am currently mostly or entirely lacking).
It seems to have a decent cross-draft.
It has new windows.
The ceilings don't show any signs of leaking.
The landlord only wants first month's rent and security deposit.
What I didn't like:
It's a mile and a half from Davis Square, which is a longish walk in the winter, and the commute to work will be something over an hour.
It's on the third floor, up a narrow and dark (but carpeted, which amuses me) staircase.
There are fewer outlets per room than there are walls per room.
There are bus routes around, but I don't know that they go anywhere useful. (I could find out about that, though)
The landlord really wants it occupied by July 1, but I have to give 30 days' notice here, so the earliest I could move would be August 1 (which is a Tuesday, which is slightly inconvenient).
I told him if he hadn't heard from me by Wednesday, I'd found somewhere else. So I've got until Wednesday to make up my mind.
