Finding a Roommate in Norfolk, VA

[Sharrod Greene]

Hey All!

So I live in Hampton Roads, Virginia and own a 3-story townhome that is much too big for just myself. The first level has its own entrance, 2 rooms, full bath, own washer/dryer, and is fully furnished. The second level is the common area with the living room, 1/2 bath, and kitchen. In trying to rent out the first level, how would you all advertise? What sort of lease would you use for this sort of "roommate situation/agreement"? Any other tips for ensuring I'm protected from a legal standpoint? Thanks in advance guys!
