<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default"><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">The part you want to hear first:<br>I have excellent credit and references, will happily pay for many months of rent in advance. I have been a homeowner and landlord myself so I understand all sides. Between my partner and I, we are very capable of making small repairs on our own. We do not smoke, burn candles/incense/fireworks/etc and are meticulous about maintaining a tidy and clean house and yard. <br><br>About us:<br>I am a well-educated, 33 year old looking for housing options in and around Missoula. I work for a regional NGO in wildlife conservation. My partner Andy is a hard-working, 29 year old, working as a welder/driller/laborer extraordinaire. We're currently renting a lovely little house in the lower Rattlesnake that we're loathe to leave, but alas the owners are putting the house on the market in May. The lease expires May 15.<br><br>About our dependents:<br>We also have two mature dogs and would really like to find a small place with a fenced backyard for them. Romulus is a 10 year old and Kiah is a 13 year old. They're both shepherd mixes, very well-behaved and always up-to-date on vaccinations. I've been wanting to be able to foster cats for the local shelters so flexibility on that front is also greatly appreciated.<br><br>What we're looking for:<br>We are open to all kinds of shelters (e.g., small house, studio, cabin, in-law--less interested in apartment complexes) and would happily set up a yurt in a quiet little piece of land (very serious about this and prepared to invest in this option if we find the right place). We are flexible in terms of specific location, lease terms/length, etc.<br></font><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font><img src="https://images.craigslist.org/00s0s_q4GgpL3Px8_600x450.jpg" title=" 1" alt=" 1" width="162" height="164" style="margin-right: 0px;"><img src="https://images.craigslist.org/00l0l_cmlMv0901w_600x450.jpg" width="164" height="109" style="margin-right: 0px;"><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br>Thanks so much for your time and consideration!<br></font></div><div class="gmail_default"><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000"><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Michelle<div class="gmail_default" style="display:inline"> Lute, PhD</div></font></font></div><div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000"><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><div class="gmail_default" style="display:inline">406.848.4910</div></font></font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
