Finding a roommate

Posted

Hey guys, 

I'm currently house hacking an SFH near Austin, TX. I've had success finding female tenants in the past, but for some reason, I'm having difficulty attracting them these days. Fortunately, I found one woman to occupy one room, but I'm having trouble find another to take over the other space across from my bedroom. I even offered a discount for the first month rent, and I'm either getting flaky people or scams. I've been using FB groups, roomster, Craigslist, and I just started using Zillow approx. 5 mins. I'm not sure what to do, but I'd love some advice.

Thanx guys!

I've experimented a bit and realized that I need to post every two days and ensure the craigslist ad is up to date as well. I'm getting more people calling me, and they're professional women who just need a cheap place to stay and don't wanna live alone. 

Thanx everyone :)
