INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You want to compose an ad that will appeal to type of roommate you are seeking. Coining a catchy and engaging headline can direct and hook potential roommates.  Keep your headline short and to the point. Remember, this is just to draw in potential roommates. For example, if you are looking for a roommate who attends a nearby college or university, you could use the headline, "Roommate Wanted to Share Great Apartment Near Campus!" If you have pets, you could write “Cat lover seeking cat lover to share great apartment and kitty cuddles.” One of the most important items potential roommates look for in an ad is the apartment or house location. This can help weed out potential roommates who may not like the location or cannot afford it.  Include basic information about the location such as if it is a house, an apartment building, and how many people live there.  If you want to protect your privacy, only include the apartment building name, not your unit number. Inform readers of the type of building, the location, and the neighborhood. With a house, you can include the street.  Ask potential roommates to email or call you for an interview and the house or building’s specific location. List the features of the room, apartment or house, and the neighborhood. Consider things that will appeal to the type of roommate you are seeking to help you locate the best person for you and your flat.  Make sure to include features about the apartment such as furnished, clean, friendly community, carpeting, windows, washer and dryer, and air conditioning. You’ll also want to include information about public transportation and parking.  For example, if you are looking for a roommate who is quiet and a homebody, you may want to include things like "located in secluded area, quiet at night, perfect for individuals who want to avoid noisy bar traffic." If you are looking for someone who could go out with you, you could write “located in an area close to restaurants, bars and nightlife.” Write a brief description of the current occupants of the house including you, other roommates, and pets. This can also help weed out people who may not have similar needs or wants as you.  Include information about how you and any other occupants use the apartment or house, whether it is active or quiet, or if people work or stay at home all day.  Make sure to include the sex and age range of everyone living in the apartment or house. It might seem like you are being picky to include the type of roommate you want, but the point of your ad is to attract someone with whom you can live. Listing specifics such as nonsmoker, male or female, and attributes is very important and can help you run avoid uncomfortable situations down the road.  Depending on where you live, there may be discrimination laws about excluding certain people or groups as roommates. For example, it may be illegal to write “no women” or “Christians only” in an ad. Consult local rental laws to see what you can and cannot include in a roommate wanted ad. This part of the ad should make the right person say “that’s the flat or house for me.”  Make sure to include information about items such as cleaning expectations, behavior in common areas, cooking, smoking, parties, and guests. Towards the end of your ad, include financial information about renting with you. Be as specific as possible and make sure to include any additional fees such as utilities or cleaning costs. Potential roommates should know exactly how much they will be expected to pay prior to applying, which should also help weed out unwanted persons.  List the rent, the cost of utilities, and any other fees such as cleaning services or parking rates. Make sure to include how much security deposit you require.  You may want to let potential roommates know that you will be conducting interviews for the space.  It’s always a good idea to ask for references from potential renters. You can include a line about references with the financial information, which may detract otherwise unsavory potential roommates. You want potential roommates to contact you without sharing too much information. This will help protect your privacy.  You can include your first name in the ad, but don't use your last name.  Only include a phone number if you have caller ID.  Use an anonymous e-mail address created specifically for your roommate search. This will make it easy to ignore people that may not be right for your space. Including pictures of the space you are advertising can also help attract potential roommates. Make sure to include pictures of the room, common areas, and any other features you want to highlight.

SUMMARY: Coin a catchy headline. Define the location of the house or apartment. Promote the apartment with its features. Describe the current occupants. Explain what type of roommate you are seeking. List the cost of rent and any other fees or expenses. Provide your contact information at the bottom of the ad. Attach photos of the advertised space.
