Last week, I put another Craigslist ad up for a room for rent. Got a couple of responses. Couple of scams responded. But one guy seems ok. So we did the email thing and he asked me to call to set up a time to meet & see the house.
Calling him felt like calling a boy for the first time. I was all nervous. Well, he's coming to see the place on Wednesday.
Its a little nerve-wracking to let a stranger into my house. But, I really could use the money. So hopefully, it works out.
I did some cleaning today and I'll sort out some stuff from the pantry and linen closet to make room for his stuff.
I'm requiring a deposit and am going to write up a contract. Which is something that he suggested (I was already going to do it). I am going to do research online about agreements for renting a room in your home. But if anyone has suggestions, please feel free to give me advice. I really need it!
I have someone coming to look at renting a room

It was a little weird because the house was small, about 1100 sq ft and we shared the living room, which meant we had to talk to each other alot. I prefer to be quiet and not have a bunch of questions about my day be asked. So if you have an extra room that could be his 'living room', he would prob appreciate it.
