Northland, 2 bedrooms, $190 pw
:Looking for flatmates in Northland, Wellington, NZ
Our flatmates are moving out soon and we need new ones in order to pay the bills. We really need a couple to move in because one person is not going to be enough to cover the power bills with winter coming up.
This is somewhat urgent because I doubt there are going to be many couples looking for a flat at this time of year; let alone couples willing to live with a couple of mentally ill stoners (medicinal), one of whom is also autistic, chronically ill, and trans :/Not just looking for couples anymore, we really need to fill the room.
Total cost per week for a couple is $242.38
Total cost per week for a single person is $195Landlady’s getting somewhat impatient since we can only afford to pay half the rent if we want to continue paying the bills.
The advertisement has been up for 42 days now and we’ve only been contacted by 4 parties. The first disappeared after first contact and the other 3 chose other places.
The landlady has asked us to pay more rent while we’re looking but we just don’t have the income. At some point she’s going to run out of patience and since we’re not paying the full amount of rent I don’t think she even has to give us notice to kick us out. We can’t afford to move, we have nowhere to keep all our stuff if we get kicked out, we have nowhere to go if we get kicked out. The only family that can really afford to help us out is my dad and he already holds his financial help over my head to remind me that I’m a bad investment and my mental health can’t take that.
I’m scared.
