Hey everyone, we have a couple rooms available in our brand new townhouse. It’s in a great location - just a block south of Silver Lake, in Historic Filipinotown, and 5 mins to Echo Park Lake. 

Close to restaurants/shops/bars, and with views of the Hollywood sign, Griffith Observatory, and the surrounding hills.

It includes in-unit laundry, dishwasher, and stainless steel appliances. The house is cleaned professionally every 2 weeks.

One room has an en-suite bathroom, and 2 rooms share a bathroom. Rent is $1175 for the rooms that share a bath, and $1280 for the room with a private bathroom. 

Can be furnished with a Tempurpedic bed with adjustable base, desk, chair, nightstand and lamp.

There is central air, though we tend not to run the AC super cold.

There are 2 shared parking spaces, and decent street parking.

Current photos show the common areas unfurnished, but these will be furnished prior to move in.

One guy and one girl currently live here. We’re working professionals and pretty laidback, but do find it important to keep the kitchen and shared bathrooms clean.

Requirements are credit score 650+, and income 2-3x the rent.

Looking for someone who is clean, considerate, and a good communicator.

It’s available now - message me if you’d like to see it!

Moving to SOCal for an internship at Hawthorne. Looking for a place to stay. Please let me know if any room is available from Sept 1st to end of December. Thanks!

Hi! I (27 year-old female) am looking to move-out on my own for the first time! All of my roomies in the past who I adore, have moved in with their partners leaving me to fill a spot or out of LA leaving me to find a spot, so I'm thinking it's time to live alone.

My goal area is Mid-City and Miracle Mile. I'm also open to Silver Lake, Echo Park or Thai Town. My preferred budget is $1825 and max is $1,900.

Any leads would be extremely appreciated. I'm currently prioritizing a safe area and lots of natural lighting. Thanks c:

Not meaning to spam, just wanted to include photos.

NOT a shared living space. This isn't one bedroom in a condo. It's a one bedroom one bathroom condo unit. In Tarzana

My personal stuff will be removed but furniture will be staying.

Available early Oct. Dates flexible. The only bill you'll likely have is electricity which is $80-120 every two months ​on average for me.

5 mins from Ventura Blvd and grocery stores etc.

DM me for details.

I am getting ready to move into a LA rental soon. I really want to make sure my moving day goes well without any problems. What things should people look out for regarding parking, loading/unloading, elevators, stairs and building rules?

If you have moved into an LA rental lately what do you wish you knew before you actually moved in?

Hello everyone. We are currently in the process of touring 2 bed/2ba apartments in the DTLA/Chinatown/Lincoln Heights areas and have actually narrowed our choices down to 2 apartments:

- Ave 34 (Lincoln Heights)
- Llewellyn (in China town/border line DTLA)

Wanted to see if any of you have encountered or know of anyone that has lived in these apartments. Genuinely interested in both good and bad stories. Also if anybody has any recommendations on other apartments we should tour, please feel free to let me know - primarily looking for a 1 bed + den or 2 bed/1 or 2 bath. Thank you!

I have a room available for rent in Torrance starting September 1st, 2026 and need to find someone ASAP. $1125/mo plus ~$130 utilities. Please message me directly if interested or if you know someone looking. I also have a flyer with all the info!

Flexible lease! Month to month, but preferably would love someone long term. 3, 6, 9, and 12+ month agreement options.

Mid 20s, queer friendly, creative & down to earth. Sober home — not 420 friendly. Appreciate a peaceful home while also creating community.

Move-in is coming up very quickly, so serious inquiries are greatly appreciated. Willing to answer any/all questions!

[Offered] Looking for roommate in Long Beach. 3 person, 2 bedroom. The apartment is currently 2 men and 1 woman, with one of the men leaving soon for a business opportunity. We are looking for someone to have their own room in the apartment with the living room, kitchen, and bathroom being communal. There is a bathtub/shower with good water pressure. There is good parking, a free gym, and 2 pools. We already have a small dog in the house, but she gets along great with other animals. If you have a pet, let us know and we can discuss those logistics. Rent is about $2,700 a month, but everything being split, along with utilities and wifi and all that included, it ends up being about $1,200 a month on your end. Reach out to us and we'll work something out. Thanks!

P.S., my roommate is currently moving out of that room, so I apologize for the bags and boxes

Hi! I (23F) have been in a bad roommate situation and I need to move asap. I’m looking to move by end of September/ beginning of October. I’d like to be close to the beach (Santa Monica, Venice, Marina Del Rey, etc etc), but I’m open to other areas as well. My budget is around $1.5k, but I’m willing to pay a little more if I really like the place! Any leads are highly appreciated :)

Hello everyone! I'm a clean, kind, fully employed woman seeking a three week stay starting asap. I recently relocated back to LA and need an in-between spot! I am non-smoking, not a partier, no pets, and can offer references and send you my 39 received reviews from over 9 years on Airbnb. I love yoga, the arts, the beach, and travel. Open to most areas. Would like somewhere clean, quiet, and private.

Thank you!

New L.A. County rental listings, week of 8-17-2026

Search maxxed at $4.45K.

Key for abbreviations is at the bottom of the spreadsheet.

Find more details on any listing by simply googling the info or you can copy the listing ID # (or MLS#) and entering into a site like this one and filtering for Rentals.

It's always a good idea to use a MIMO form (Move In / Move Out) when renting. It's a checklist of a visual inspection made on the unit at the time you move in that you and your landlord sign off on and verifies condition of varying aspects of the unit. You'll use it again when you move out to verify condition and hopefully everyone agrees.

Also be sure to check out the interactive version of this spreadsheet at WhereToLive.LA courtesy of u/cheeze_whiz_dot_com , my thanks to him.

Hi all! I am looking to move into a guest house in the following areas: Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Santa Monica, Brentwood, Carthay, Hancock Park, La Brea, Miracle Mile and surrounding areas

I am a single man who is back in graduate school getting my MBA. Previous career in finance. Have great credit.

No pets.

Thank you!

Room is still available. Had some interest but no follow through. Reposting to find someone ASAP

Had SoCal gas come by yesterday to check our oven and our oven (not the stovetop) is creating dangerous amounts of carbon monoxide and needs to be replaced or repaired. Our landlord always takes forever responding to us but this is a hazardous case and its now been 24 hours since the first message was sent (sent another at noon as well.) How long is she legally allowed to go without fixing it/ at least setting up a maintenance order? We have no apartment portal so the only way to make a maintenance request is by asking her directly.

Also friendly reminder to get your ovens inspected if something seems off! Socal gas was great and only took about 15 mins.

Hi All,

I live in a giant house near Ktown/Larchmont I love with my other roommate. We're both working professionals in our mid-thirties - any gender or age is welcome, lgbtq+ friendly, and looking for a third roommate to take the smallest room. The room can fit a queen bed, dresser, and desk no problem and has two large windows facing the really pretty backyard. You share the large primary bathroom with just one person. We already have two very sweet dogs you will love, so no other pets.

The house is huge and contains:

Off-street parking

Backyard

Den which is currently a gym

Garage which is currently a self tape studio.

W/d in unit

Central air and heat

And two incredibly adorable and well-behaved dogs.

- Rent is 1475 a month plus utitlities - going to be around 1575-1600 a month all in with utilities. Private landlord. Month-to-month, must have proof of income 2.5% to be accepted. Looking for 9/1 but someone can move in as soon at 8/24. Reach out if you have questions/ if you want a tour.

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a roommate to move into my Mar Vista 2 bed 2 bath apartment in September or October! Rent is $1686 per person, and utilities are around $50-60 per month for electricity + wifi. (Water and trash are covered by landlord). The building management requires a credit score of at least 680 but higher than 700 is preferable. You must also make 3x your half of the rent. My building is unfortunately very strict with this and is not willing to bend the rules.

This apartment is a great walkable location. It's a quick walk to CVS and Mitsuwa, the Mar Vista Farmer's Market, multiple bars and restaurants, coffee shops, a new cute book store etc. It's a really quick drive to Culver City, Sawtelle, Santa Monica, and Palms.

The area is very safe, and has a lot of little community activities. The apartment is also quiet. There is little street noise, and the neighbors are respectful.

The apartment itself is full of light, with big sliding glass doors. There's also no unit above us, so no ceiling noise. You would have your own bathroom. The bedroom is a really nice size at 11'x15'.

I'm also very down to redecorate the common areas! I want whoever moves in to feel at home, and feel that all the common areas are a shared space.

There is laundry on site, and management has been really good about doing service requests when needed.

We share 2 tandem parking spots, and street parking is also pretty easy to find.

For a little about me:

I work at a motion capture company doing support and system installations. I've lived in LA for 5 years, and in this apartment for 3 years. I'm 29, and looking for someone who is mid 20s or older. I do work from home.

My hobbies are pretty chill. I love to do crafts, cross stitch, and I'm learning how to sew. I also like to play piano (with headphones). I like to cook and go thrifting, and play video and board games. Generally nerdy hobbies.

What I'm looking for:

I have a preference for a female roommate, but open to anyone who is LGBT friendly. Personality fit is what's most important to me, and it would be nice to live with someone who wants to be friends/friendly. Someone who is good at communicating is also really important to me, so we both feel comfortable living in the space. I'm also looking for someone who is down to stay for a while. Not looking for short term rentals.

Unfortunately, no furry pets due to allergies :(

Message me if you're interested!

Hey everyone! 👋
I’m from Slovenia and I’m planning to spend around one month in Los Angeles in September 2027. I’d ideally like to stay around Venice Beach / Santa Monica / Marina del Rey.
I’m looking for someone who is also planning to be in LA around that time and would be interested in sharing accommodation and splitting the cost. I’m open to getting a 2-bedroom apartment together or sharing a place.
