Best Way to Find/Screen Tenants for House Hacking..?

[Dane Maglinao]

What is the best way to find & screen a tenant to share my primary residence with for house hacking?

I live in 3 floor condo and would like to rent out the bottom room to help save on monthly mortgage costs while also providing fully furnished housing for someone who'd like to also save a bit on living expenses in sharing a living space together.

I was thinking to post an ad on Craigslist. Maybe I should just Google best way how?

Curious what the experts have to say!

Thanks
