Searching…

That’s what I’ve been doing for a week. For the perfect apartment, the unbelievable deal smack in the center of San Francisco.

Things I’ve learned: “Large” is such a relative term. “Cozy” is a euphemism for small.

The tally:

77 phone calls placed regarding units for rent

41 units viewed (either at Open Houses or by appointment)

17.5 miles walked, from the Western Addition, to Pacific Heights, to Russian Hill, to Nob Hill, to Downtown, and back again, at least a dozen times

2 realtor agents who stood me up, left me standing on the street, waiting to see a unit

1 ad that truthfully represented the apartment’s features

1 apartment applied for (see above)

Fingers crossed….
