Summer Housing: Seattle

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Sep 23, 2015 12:42 pm

Any suggestions on where to look for summer housing?

I'm a non-UW/SeattleU 2L who will be spending my summer at a Seattle firm. I have family in the state, but not close enough to commute from for the summer. I looked into on-campus housing at both UW & SU but it wouldn't be available until a couple weeks after I started my job. I've also looked at a few corporate housing options (like the company Amazon uses for their intern housing), but it is ridiculously expensive.

Subletting from a student is obviously an option, but I'm not sure the best way to go about finding options like that (with the exception of CraigsList, obviously). Any suggestions?

Same situation. If you know anyone with UW/SU ties, have them ask around. Also look into Airbnb; I've come across some very reasonable downtown deals, although we're still a ways out.

Me too. Glad to know I won't be the only one. I'd bet that a good way to find housing is by hitting up UW/SU law schools to find people that are looking for their own subletter.
