Looking for a place? This B.C. cancer survivor will pay you $1,500 to be his roommate

Are you looking for a place to live in the Metro Vancouver area, but are sick and tired of listings featuring sky-high rent and outrageous landlord stipulations?

If so, this particular listing by a Coquitlam, B.C., resident may be just what you’re looking for - providing you’re willing to show a little compassion.

As Kelowna Now reports, 32-year-old Brice Royer has posted an unusual ad listing on Craigslist in search of a roommate to occupy a single bedroom in his home.

What makes this living arrangement unique is there’s no actual rent to pay, and if you’re the right fit Royer will even be willing to pay you $1,500 dollars a month minimum to live there.

Royer is a stomach cancer survivor who’s still dealing with chronic fatigue while he recovers. The listing states he’s specifically “looking for a compassionate, kind, sensitive, and gentle roommate” and one “who can be here for basic support during the day and 5 overnights in case of emergency.“

The ad also states potential roommates wouldn’t be responsible for facilitating Royer’s medical or personal health needs.

Instead, the right roommate would ideally be there to keep him company while he recovers, and also assist in duties like cooking simple meals and helping him handle the occasional bit of paperwork.

This isn’t the first time Royer has made headlines for eye-catching Craigslist ads. He’s previously put out an ad selling unconditional love for zero dollars and also helped raised the funds necessary to purchase a 300-square-foot solar-powered home for a single mother in need as well.
