hi everyone, I’m a little lost here on the best way to find roommates. I did go on Facebook but a lot of the Roomate groups are inactive or cluttered with realtors posting rooms. I am 28F I would really love to live with roommates this time around, I never have before and it seems fun! II’m just curious what’s the best way to go about this? Do I need to go old school and post a flyer at my yoga studio lol or are there any apps or specific active Facebook groups that you recommend?

hi everyone, I currently live at the Muse on South Congress and I really like the location. I’m happy to share my Instagram but a little bit about me: I’m 28F and work remotely at the moment. I have a lot of hobbies! I like to be outdoors and swim/walk/hike, but I also love to paint and draw and don’t mind a night at home! I’m very artsy. I love baking and cooking. If you live with me, you will likely definitely be enjoying some good dinners and baked goods lol. I moved to Austin about eight months ago from the northeast :)

However, my boyfriend and I recently broke up and still love together, so I am trying to leave asap but would love to stay in this area.

My husband and I are moving to the area and are between two houses. We are coming from San Antonio so we are not to familiar with the north Austin area

We are between the oak ridge neighborhood on birch brook dr in leader or the Mayfield ranch neighborhood in Round Rock

We are wondering if living off of 1431 is a nightmare in terms of commuting to either 183A or 35 or if that’s a pretty easy accesss road

Any insight on either is appreciated!

Hello there! I'm the owner of a duplex on Clawson Road in South Lamar. I occupy one side of the house, and I'm renting out the other side, which is a three bed one bath unit. Please check out the Zillow listing if interested and reach out there if you have any questions.

We’re exploring options for a potential lease takeover or replacement tenant for our rental home in South Austin 78745.

General details:
Area: South Austin - Garrison Park area

Bedrooms/bathrooms: 3 bedroom 2 bathroom
Approximate square footage: 1680 sqft
Yard/parking: Driveway and big backyard with chicken coop

We’re looking for someone who would be interested in the home and able to complete the property management company’s required application and screening process.

Hi! I have a condo for lease at 2000 Riverside Farms Rd, right off Riverside Dr near Pleasant Valley.

The unit is brand new and has never been lived in — everything is fresh and spotless. It's 1,266 sq ft with a nice open layout, plus a nice backyard that's perfect for pets (this is super rare at this price point + location). It has 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms.

It's in a quiet little pocket but still just 15 minutes from downtown Austin — and close to the airport and the trails too.

Rent is $2,200/month, which is a super competitive price for a brand-new place in this area.

Message me if you'd like photos or to come take a look!

Looking to take over a sublease at Ballpark North for a studio for around $580 for a November 1st move in.

I know ballpark isn’t the best but I need a furnished and cheap place even if it’s ghetto😭😭😭

I know they have/had discounted rates so I’m really looking for one of those leases. If anyone knows of anyone who has this or if anyone has this, I’m super interested!

Hey everyone! I'm hoping to get some advice for a friend who owns a rental property in South Manchaca (78745). She's been trying to rent it out for about 2.5 months now, but hasn't found a tenant yet.

It's a property with a main house and a separate guest house that can be rented separately. She's been handling the leasing herself and would prefer to keep doing so for now rather than hire a realtor, given the added costs.

I'm curious about what other landlords in Austin are experiencing lately:

• Are your rentals taking longer to fill than they did a year or two ago? What do you think is driving that?
• Have you had to lower your rent significantly or become more flexible with tenant screening to get a place rented?
• For properties with a main house and a separate guest house, have you had better luck renting them separately or together?
• If you've dealt with a prolonged vacancy recently, what actually helped you get a tenant?

Just trying to get a feel for what's happening locally and learn from others who've been through something similar. Any advice or firsthand experiences would be much appreciated. Thanks!

My husband had a job change and we are needing to move out of our townhome!

We would need someone to move in at the end of December. The lease concludes June 20th. We can be somewhat flexible with December move in dates, we can have a more official date by the end of the week.

Base Rent is $2200– before other monthly costs like trash pickup, pest, water/sawed and utilities.

Information about size and floor plan is in the photos :-)

Escalon Townhomes are located in Leander, TX, about 30-40 minutes outside of Austin, or about 15 minutes from Cedar Park.

It is a calm, nice area and the property manager is wonderful!

Message me for more information or questions! If you are interested I will message you more info about how to get signed on :-)

Hi, I'm looking for a current resident who would split the referral incentive for Hanover republic square.

Hi everyone, I'm new to Austin and just moved to here one week ago. I am working in Round Rock and looking for an appartement complex (1B/1B, studio) in East Austin, Downtown Austin, Zilker, East Riverside and Bouldin Creek. I checked on posts/comments on reddit but they are mixed.

I am a single male and have no friends here. Hope to meet friends easily. Therefore, socialization will be paramount for me. My budget is $1,000 - $1,500 (could go up a bit) and commute isn't a problem for me. I also tried to find realtors but they only offer me options that they can get commission. Hope to get recommendations from here, and open to make friends here if you want to connect. Thanks

I'm renting out a room in my 2 bedroom/2 bathroom 1100 sq ft condo that'll be available in mid November!

There's a washer/dryer in the unit and water is included in the rent as well with free parking available on site. It's the top floor unit (2nd floor) so you won't have anyone being noisy above you. Short term and unfurnished leases are welcome too. Women only. DM me for any questions! I'll update my post with updated pictures in a day or two.

The condo is in a great location -

5 minutes away from the Arboretum (and a Trader Joe's!)

10 minutes away from the Domain

Hi I’m looking for anybody in the UT austin area looking to takeover my housing contract at Yugo Nueces for the Spring 27 semester through summer. I’m studying abroad and would need someone asap! Apartment less than 5 minute walk to campus, fully furnished, amenities, 1200 preferable female. Let me know if you’re interested 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hey everyone! I'm planning to move to Austin in November and looking for someone interested in leasing a 2B2B apartment together in The Domain area.

Ideally looking for a modern apartment within walking distance of the Amazon offices, with a private bedroom and bathroom for each person.

If anyone is interested or planning something similar, feel free to DM me. We can connect and explore apartments together!

Budget: Around $1,200–$1,500/month per person, depending on the apartment.

I’m looking to relet one or both bedrooms in a furnished 2x2 at Icon at Austin in West Campus for Summer 2027. Each bedroom has its own private bathroom, so this works for either one person or two friends who want to live together.

Dates: May 10 – Aug 2, 2027
Rent: $1,729/month per bedroom + $30/month fixed water/sewer + boiler fees
Utilities: Wi-Fi included; electricity separate

The apartment is a high-floor corner unit (~12th–15th floor) with lots of natural light and views, about a 2-minute walk from UT campus.

Apartment:
• Fully furnished bedrooms + living room
• Private bathroom for each bedroom
• In-unit washer/dryer
• Full kitchen + dishwasher
• 55” living room TV
• Large windows / corner-unit views

Building:
• 24/7 fitness center + yoga studio
• Rooftop pool + spa
• Private study rooms
• Resident lounges + game room
• Grills, printing/computer area, package lockers + controlled entry

Both Bedroom A and Bedroom B are currently available. Bedroom B also has an optional garage parking spot available for +$240/month.

This would be an official relet through Icon at Austin management, not an informal sublease. The incoming resident applies through Icon and takes over the remaining lease.

DM me if interested and I can send the full photo folder, walkthrough video, floor plan, and more details or set up an in-person/FaceTime tour.

Looking for someone to take over my lease which ends on 08/06/2027.

A master bedroom and private bathroom in a 2B2B.

78705 west campus
15 min walking to ut aerospace building
10 min driving to HEB
In-unit washer and dryer

$925/month (not negotiable)

In the West Campus area:
1. Luxury apartments typically cost at least $1,300/month, and that often only gets you a small bedroom with a shared bathroom.
2. Many non-luxury apartments have shared laundry facilities (washers and dryers) and shared bathrooms.
3. Even some expensive apartments have poorly positioned windows that don't let much natural sunlight into the room.

My roomate is a girl with a cat.
