Roommate wanted for bath!

Kwarto para sa rentahan | Howell, La Mesa, CA, USA

Hi everyone! I’m looking for a roommate to fill the third bedroom in my bath available August 1 or earlier. Rent would be $ plus around $ in utilities. About the house:- Located in La Mesa near the freeways, about mins from SDSU- Upstairs unit of a previously one-story house (therefore unique layout, I can always do a facetime tour to show you)- Garage and lots of street parking- In-unit laundry- Shared bathroom with one other roommate, jack/jill sinks- Three balconies and lots of outdoor space on largest balconyAbout us:- I’m and work at SDSU in the Scholarship Office. I currently live in the primary bedroom. - Colin is and is studying at SDSU to become an elementary school teacher. He plans to move into the other bedroom, so you’d share a bathroom with him. - I have three ESA cats but only one of them would come say hi, the other two like to hang in my room. Unfortunately we’re not allowed other pets (unless they’re also ESAs)Overall, I’m looking for someone who is clean and tidy in common spaces, progressive/queer-friendly, and is not allergic to cats. We’d like to hang out at times but also respect each other’s individual time/space, of course! If you’re interested and/or have any questions, feel free to message me!☺️*side note - the video is the available room but my roommate is still moving out so don’t worry, it’ll be clear and clean by move-in time! The other pics are professional listing photos so they look great but we do have furniture haha

Hi friends!I am looking for one more roommate for my La Mesa home. My homie Brian is moving from Phoenix to try out life in San Diego and he’s bringing his cute doggo Kuma with him. There’s one spot left on our lease and rent is $, shared bathroom with Brian, and utilities are not included. There is parking space for you and washer and dryer as well on property. A little bit about us, I am born and raised in SD and love energy healing modalities, climbing some trees, wandering OB with my besties, shuffling, listening to electronic music, learning how to sew… the list goes on! Brian is super into skating, anime, Halloween, wants to join a running club here, and taking care of his doggo and plant babies. Some things to note: this is a smoke free property per lease, male or female roommates are fine, overnight guests are fine. We want to create a kind and fun environment where everyone feels safe and comfy, we are both homebodies, single, and always up for nature explorations. There’s a park walking distance from the house, only 5 minutes from down town La Mesa.Photo is me doing a solo camping trip with the bucket hat and photo on the right is Brian being a cool kid in Phoenix with one of his besties.Please lmk if you are interested

  • How many rooms for rent are available in San Diego, CA right now?

    Roomster currently shows 308 active rooms for rent across the San Diego search area. That inventory usually includes North Park, Hillcrest, Pacific Beach, Mission Valley, Clairemont, UTC, La Jolla, and College Area, plus nearby places many renters treat as part of the same commute zone. Good room listings move quickly here, especially when they are furnished, include parking, or sit close to the coast or a campus.

  • What are the best San Diego neighborhoods to rent a room?

    If you want a more urban feel, start with North Park, Hillcrest, Normal Heights, Little Italy, and Downtown. Pacific Beach and Ocean Beach stay popular with renters who want beach access and a social setup, while UTC and La Jolla attract UCSD-related demand and more polished apartment shares. Mission Valley and Clairemont often make sense for central commutes, and College Area near SDSU stays active with student and early-career renters.

  • How much does a room for rent cost in San Diego?

    Across current Roomster listings, the average monthly room rent in San Diego is about $1,374.01. Rooms near Pacific Beach, La Jolla, UTC, Little Italy, and newer coastal or central apartment communities often run above that average, while parts of Clairemont, City Heights, College Area, and inland neighborhoods can offer better value. Parking, a private bath, and whether the room is furnished usually make the biggest pricing difference.

  • Can I find furnished or near-campus rooms in San Diego?

    Yes. Furnished rooms show up often on Roomster in UTC and La Jolla near UCSD, around College Area near SDSU, and in central neighborhoods like Mission Valley, North Park, and Hillcrest. They are especially useful for interns, grad students, travel nurses, military moves, and people relocating without furniture. Just confirm whether the listing also includes parking, WiFi, laundry, and utilities, because in San Diego those details change the value fast.

  • What should I check before renting a room in San Diego?

    In San Diego, confirm parking, laundry, utility split, pet rules, and commute time to I-5, I-8, I-805, or the trolley before you commit. That matters even more if you need regular access to UCSD, SDSU, Downtown, Mission Valley, a hospital system, or the coast. A room that looks reasonable online can feel much less convenient once street parking, beach traffic, or a cross-town commute becomes part of daily life.
