Description

I have a short-term, ongoing, and flexible sublet opportunity that I would like to pass along to people affiliated with the University: students or post-docs, traveling faculty, conference attendees, etc. Dates can be flexible, especially given advance notice. In some cases I will have the ability to schedule my travel around someone's housing needs. Between a hybrid job in Seattle and other travel, I am finding that I am often gone from my Berkeley apartment for a few weeks at a time. My landlord has given me permission to sublet for short periods of time (up to 28 days), and so I am looking to find people with short-term housing needs who would be respectful of the space and neighbors (we have a lovely community on my street). It's a charming, light-filled one-bedroom apartment in a 1920s building four blocks north of UC-Berkeley. It's furnished with a queen size bed, a comfy futon in the living room, adjustable height sitting/standing desk, fast wifi, a deep bathtub, colorful decor, and very happy plants! I have a cat and hypoallergenic dog who come with me or stay with friends when I travel--it's maybe not for those with a severe cat allergy. Note on parking: This could work for someone who drives to a 9-5, who doesn't have a car, or who has a separate parking solution. Parking is street (zone G in Berkeley residential parking), and so not readily available at least during the day M-F (would need to move the car every 2 hours). No issues to park on evenings and weekends...

How rent is calculated
Daily basis
This listing’s rent is calculated on a daily basis. For the first and last months of your stay, you’ll only pay for the exact number of days in your rental period — just like a hotel. We call this a Daily contract type. To confirm your rental, you’ll need to pay one month’s rent in full. Any excess rent you pay for the first month will be subtracted from the next month’s rent.
Cancellation policy

Strict cancellation

If you cancel:

  • Within 24 hours of confirmation – Full refund of first month’s rent
  • After 24 hours of confirmation – No refund

How to rent this place

If you're ready to rent, here’s what to do:

  1. Select your dates to check availability.
  2. Click Apply to rent.
  3. Fill in a quick rental application and send an intro message.
  4. Add your supporting documents and payment details to pre-authorize a potential payment.
  5. If the landlord accepts your rental application, we’ll collect payment to confirm your stay. If they don’t, your payment will be automatically canceled.

At HousingAnywhere, in-person viewings are not supported — so everyone has an equal chance to rent, no matter where you are in the world. To help you make an informed decision, we recommend:

  1. Messaging the landlord on HousingAnywhere to ask any questions.
  2. Requesting more photos, video tours, or floor plans.
  3. Read up on Tenant Protection to learn how you’re covered if something goes wrong.
After your rental is confirmed on HousingAnywhere, you and the landlord will receive each other’s contact details. You can then contact them outside our platform, or continue messaging on HousingAnywhere. You can pay future months’ rent and other rental costs using our payment request feature.
