2024 SA SF Housing

Just accepted offer to intern at an SF firm. Anyone looking for a roommate or have any idea on where to find housing? From previously threads looks like Airbnb and Facebook Marketplace are good places. Everything seems so expensive though (at least 2700+ a month)

Congrats on the offer, buddy! You're right, San Francisco can be a bit pricey when it comes to housing. But don't worry, there are ways to navigate this.

Based on the most helpful WSO content, Airbnb and Facebook Marketplace are indeed good places to start. You might also want to consider looking for places in the East Bay (Oakland, Berkeley) as they tend to be cheaper. Just make sure you're within a 5-10min walk of a Bart station for easy commuting.

If you're looking for roommates, you can use this thread to find others in the same boat. You can also check out other threads on WSO or use social media platforms to connect with other interns who might be looking for roommates.

Remember, the early bird gets the worm. So, start your search early to get the best deals. Good luck!
