I am looking for a one-bedroom apartment (NO SHARES). My move in date is flexible - mid-July through mid-August would be fine. I would be the only person living there. I have two well-behaved cats, so it must be cat friendly. $650-750 range - $775 is my absolute maximum, and it would have to be a really great place. Preferred neighborhoods: Irvington, Laurelhurst, Belmont, maybe Alberta or Hawthorne. I used to work in real estate in NYC so I'm very sensitive to crappy landlords. The apartment doesn't have to be a palace, but it must be sound and well-maintained, and if there is a problem the landlord/management should be responsive. I strongly prefer a 1-br over a studio, but I would consider a large studio if it had a LARGE bathroom with a window (having cats means sometimes you need to lock them out of your bedroom at 5am). I am a very quiet, responsible tenant. I do most of my socializing outside the house, and I'm a good neighbor. My cats are indoor only, so they will not be bothering anybody. I like peace and quiet when I am at home. I am employed at a great job, and I have very good credit and a perfect payment history. I will happily pay reasonable deposits, including a pet deposit, but not "pet rent" (which is ridiculous). cats are OK - purrr Location: Inner NE or very close in SE it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests oregon
