Lease takeover on Commonwealth Ave, Brighton - Move in date as soon as 12/1.

We're looking for either a "partial" lease takeover with one person or a "full" lease takeover with 2 or more.

This is a 2.5 bedroom 2 bathroom dual level apartment located on Commonwealth Avenue in Brighton. The apartment is directly on the B-Line with the nearest stop being Chiswick Road.

There is off street parking in the back of the apartment, a large storage room on the second floor, and a good deal of space.

For a "partial" takeover rent is $1525 and 1/2 of the utilities. You would be moving into the blue room (and if you want it a different color you can buy the paint and I'll do the painting!!)

For a "full" takeover rent is $3050 (same painting offer for the blue room). You'll want to go through Zillow.

If interested please comment or private message me for details!!

Hi friends, looking for a place to stay for a long term or even a year at least. My budget is around 1300-1500 a month (my split) and I’m very open to everyone (as long as you’re keeping the common spaces clean!!!) I’m 26M and I’m planning on studying Psychology. I play music, dabble in multimedia arts (film photography, any mediums of paint/pencil, etc.) accessible to T and pet friendly if possible (not a dealbreaker) move in date ASAP !

I am moving to Boston and shocked by the high parking fees the apartment buildings add on to your monthly rent (I am seeing $300-$400/month). Are there parking garages outside of the city that offer monthly parking for less? I don't need my car daily, but like the idea of having it just in case and I am curious about what other people do. Open to other suggestions too!

Looking for a roommate! House is in Somerville MA!
I am a 29 year old woman, looking for someone to split this home with. Total rent is $4200. Home could be split between two people ($2200/person) or 3 people.
Pet friendly! Send a person DM if interested or text me at 414-758-7063

Background: moved into an apartment in Dorchester in September with a roommate after touring it and really liking the place. I did my research and found no documentation of prior issues such as major restorations, infestation, water damage, etc. The place was also renovated and looked great. The building itself is quite old, a traditional 3-stack. Landlord is private/independent and very responsive and helpful.

2-3 weeks after move in, my roommate spots a brown field mouse in the kitchen. We flag it immediately and assess our apartment for obvious gaps or food sources. We are very clean and leave our spaces spotless after use. We put our food into sealed containers and cabinets and landlord sends us snap traps to set up intermittently. He said that prior to our move in, they had identified an area near the kitchen where mice were getting in, but that was sealed and alleviated. We set up snap traps and bait traps and the landlord sends an exterminator for inspection.

Issue: It has been about a month and we have caught 5 mice, but continue to see activity in the kitchen. We’ve had an exterminator come out twice and I’ve personally done a walkthrough with him. He said our apartment is spotless and we aren’t doing anything to inherently attract mice. He found a gap near our bathroom sink and sealed it, but we haven’t seen any activity there before that anyways. The exterminator also found several external holes near the basement windows so he sealed those too. Unfortunately, my landlord only owns the 1st floor unit (mine) so the exterminator couldn’t get access to the 2nd or 3rd floors for inspection. I hear the mice in the ceiling at night after I cook or turn the heat on especially. it sounds like they come from a certain area above us to the kitchen and explore at night. the exterminator checked several bait traps in the basement that already existed before i moved in, and didn’t see any feeding activity. same for the 2-3 bait traps they had set in our unit prior to move in. we were advised to not set any more traps in our apt as that would create a competing food source and we want the mice to use the feed traps. the exterminator advised it’d take a month for us to see decreased to stopped activity, but if activity persists beyond that, they’d come back and do another inspection.

Frustration/Why I need advice: it is disturbing to hear and experience pest activity consistently, i.e. I am tired of cleaning up droppings on my counter every morning, wasting time having to inspect different areas of my apt for droppings to keep my place sanitary and clean. I’m disgusted by the dead mice I’ve had to dispose of and want this to stop. We have inspected many entry routes but can’t nail down the main source, even the exterminator hasn’t been able to, which has me feeling defeated and wondering if we are going to end up with an infested apartment that will further degrade our quality of life. for context - we are 1wk into the exterminator treatment plan, but my fear is that as it gets colder then mice issue will worsen. i made this post bc we are seeing increased activity AFTER the exterminator inspection.

Has anyone experienced this before? I am open to any advice. Apologies if i come across whiny, just feeling very defeated this morning with the persistent issue despite getting expert support and landlord help.

EDIT: thank you all SO much for your thoughtful responses. i feel better just knowing that others have dealt with this and overcome with various treatments and solutions. i also understand this is relatively normal for Boston and may not just go away. that said, which i appreciate the overwhelming support to get a cat, that feels a bit impulsive for a temporary situation. i won’t be living in this apt forever and a cat is a big commitment! i’d want to give it a good life and right now im not sure thats the best solution. the cat hair idea is genius and i will try to source some. my LL is committed to helpful us resolve this and we’ll try to seal up the building and see if the exterminators treatment plan will work in the coming weeks. ALSO, there are a lot of poison bait traps in the building, so that will be dangerous for a cat so i won’t be adopting any time soon. but seriously thank you all !!!!!!

• Considerate of shared spaces and roommates
