After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a junior accountant in Bakersfield and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 2 months. I can pay $360 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have a landlord and employer references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

So sorry you're going through this. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Best of luck, Brooks. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Ikeja.
