I am starting full time feb 2026 for IBD in LA and looking for potential roommates in West LA - ideally want to be walkable from the office so literally in Century City/Beverly Hills is best. Flexible on budget, love the outdoors and working out.

Based on the most helpful WSO content, finding roommates in Century City or West LA for IBD roles is a common topic. Here are some actionable tips:
Preferred Areas: Century City and Beverly Hills are excellent choices for proximity to your office. Other nearby neighborhoods like Westwood or Culver City could also work if you're open to a short commute.
Roommate Search: Utilize platforms like Wall Street Oasis roommate threads, Facebook housing groups, or apps like Roomi and SpareRoom. Mention your February 2026 start date and preferences (e.g., budget flexibility, love for outdoors/fitness) to attract like-minded roommates.
Temporary Housing: If you're unable to secure a roommate immediately, consider short-term options like Airbnb or corporate housing in Century City. This gives you time to network and find a suitable long-term arrangement.
Networking: Reach out to colleagues or alumni in your firm who might also be looking for housing or know of others in a similar situation.
Budget Considerations: While you're flexible on budget, keep in mind that Century City and Beverly Hills can be pricey. Splitting costs with 1-2 roommates can make high-quality housing more affordable.
If you're looking for specific roommate threads or housing discussions, Wall Street Oasis often has active posts for LA-based finance professionals. You might find others starting in February 2026 who are also searching!
