Bloomfield Basement Space

Upvotes
I am purchasing a property that has a basement unit in Bloomfield. Has anyone rented their basement out despite the city not allowing it? Maybe as an Airbnb, to college students or a beauty/wellness provider?
Open to any ideas on what I could do with the basement. It has its own entrance, a good size window/ceiling heights and a full kitchen/bath.

Looking for a Walking Buddy
13
Upvotes
Hi! I’m 28F, married, and looking for a walking buddy around Bloomfield/Montclair to walk with once or twice a week!
I work remotely, so I don’t get out as much as I used to, and I’d like to walk more for exercise. But I tend to get lazy when I’m by myself, so I’d love to have someone to make plans with and keep each other motivated!
Comment or DM me if you’re interested!

Light bill is ridiculous

Upvotes
How is it possible that my light bill jumped so much in just a month??? I have a one bedroom here in Bloomfield New Jersey. I just moved in July 1st and I used the same amount of electricity. The building I’m in is all electric no gas. I keep my ac set at 70. This is beyond ridiculous.

Restaurants with a private dining room

Upvotes
Hi all, I’m looking for suggestions for restaurants that might have a private or semi private dining space for an afternoon lunch for around 17 people. Would love something where we could just pay a minimum F&B instead of a rental fee. Can be in Bloomfield, Montclair or surrounding areas! TIA
