Can't uploading and editing photos wait until you get home. You will not be able to decompress or enjoy where you are if you're busy with your tech stuff.

I have the Big Ben Moon Beam...the light comes on 5 minutes before the alarm sounds. Plus, the retro styling is very cool.

Nice but I would rather have seen more photos of the kitchen and less of the decorative elements.

Do it...can't hurt to try. I did this several years ago and it worked out well. The landlord gave me a budget and then I paid the difference. If you do agree to an arrangement, get it in writing. Have the landlord write a simple letter and save all your receipts.

On the flip side, once I met some of my new neighbors, I realized how seriously whacko they are. Like the woman across the street who gets drunk, knocks on my door and proceeds to tell me how much she hates my house. Be careful what you wish for.
