Weida withholding my keys because my roommate can’t pay rent

hi so my roommate and I signed a lease with weida last fall for the upcoming year and she hasn’t paid the last two rent payments. Our lease starts in August and I’m moving in this week and they’re refusing to give me the keys until she pays. I paid my half of the rent on time every single time and they’re refusing to let me move in until she does and due to a family emergency she isn’t able to right now. Does anyone have any experience with a situation like this or with Weida any advice would be appreciated

URGENT! Looking for fall 2026 only sublease

I’m looking for housing for Fall 2026 only, since I’ll be graduating at the end of the Fall 2026 semester.

I’m flexible about the location and housing type. A studio, one-bedroom apartment, or private room in a shared apartment would all work. I’m mainly looking for a lease or sublease from around August 2026 through December 2026.

I’m clean, responsible, and respectful of shared spaces. Please message me if you have a Fall-only sublease available or know of any apartments offering semester-length leases.

Thank you!

Looking for 1 Room for Fall Semester Only. Budget<700. Distance is not a concern

Hi everyone,

I'm a Master student in robotics. I'm looking for a Fall sublease since I graduate in December. I have a car so distance is not a problem. I also have a cat, but he's really chill and just stay in the room most of the time. I am also a super chill person, and my idealogy is to be (or at least try to be) friends with my roommate because I like the dynamics. Let me know if you have any.

I will PAY you $3000 to take over my Lease at Alight

Yes, I'm the person paying someone $3,000 to take my apartment.

No, I didn't lose a bet.

Life changed.

My loss is your gain.

No joking, I will PAY you $3000 to take over my lease for the fall. 

Let’s do the math:

Rent: $1,299/month

Incentive: $3,000 + August paid

That's like getting over three months of rent paid for you and 300 extra to cover utilities.

Then you can transfer it to someone else if you want to at semester when people are looking.

The catch?

There isn't one.

You qualify through Alight.

You sign with Alight.

I get released.

You get a $3,000 check. And your first rent payment isn’t due until September.

This is a 1 bed 1 bath at Alight. Fully furnished, free shuttle to campus every 20 minutes, free energy drinks at the front office, I’d pay 2 months rent as a check to you if you take over the entire lease. August is already paid. So you get 3 months free. You can move in immediately. Lease runs August 1 2026 through July 31 2027 (or you can transfer it early). $1299 per month and I’d write you a check for 2 months rent at $2700 and $300 extra for utilities upon signing and be will to sign a legal document attesting to that prior to your agreement. Let me know and I’ll show it to you immediately. Must be able to pass a background check.

Housing Recommendations Near Purdue

Hi everyone! I’m an incoming Purdue graduate student looking for housing recommendations in West Lafayette or Lafayette for the upcoming academic year.

I’m specifically looking for a place that:

  • Is close to Purdue and walkable or easily accessible by public transportation
  • Has a decent number of Purdue graduate students living there
  • Is preferably a 1 bed/1 bath or studio, but I’m open to roommates if I can have a private bedroom
  • Is reasonably priced for a grad student

I’d really appreciate recommendations from current or former Purdue grad students who have firsthand experience with different apartments or neighborhoods. What places would you recommend that meet these criteria?

Looking for 1b1b or 2b2b

Hi everyone!
I graduated from Purdue last year and will be moving back to West Lafayette for work. I know a lot of people are looking to sublease or transfer their leases, so I’d be happy to take one off your hands!

I’m looking for either:
A 1 bed/1 bath, or
A 2 bed/2 bath with a female roommate only

My budget is around $1,000/month, ideally including utilities and other fees. I also have two cats, so the place would need to be pet-friendly. Location and proximity to campus aren’t important to me.

A little about me:
Clean and respectful roommate.
Occasionally enjoy going out for drinks with friends.
Non-smoker.
I’ll be working full-time, so I’d prefer a quieter living environment with roommates who don’t host guests very often.

If you have any leads or are looking for someone to take over your lease, please send me a DM. Thank you! 😊

Free e-bike, refrigerator, microwave (prepaid delivery within 3 miles from Purdue on Aug 21)

TLDR: Purdue student enlisting with Air Force or Space Force, giving away for free the stuff he has in storage.

My son is a Purdue student who is enlisting with Space Force (or Air Force), so he won't be coming back to Purdue for at least 4 years.  He currently has stuff in storage with Scholar Storage that he will no longer need.  The storage is fully paid for including delivery to any location within 3 miles from Purdue.

Scholar Storage wants to charge us a disposal fee and rather than flying there (we're based in California) and handling the delivery ourselves just to donate it, we'd rather give it to any student.  Just specify the location, and Scholar Storage will deliver them to you on August 21.

What's Included:

  1. E-bike (with battery and charger)
  2. Mini-refrigerator
  3. Microwave
  4. Plastic chest of drawers
  5. Electric stand fan
  6. Full-size mirror
  7. Demon Podium full face bike helmet
  8. Step stool
  9. Folding chair
  10. Memory foam pillows and mattress topper
  11. Clothes / Linens (Duffel bag #1)
  12. Clothes / Linens (Duffel bag #2)
  13. Hamper
  14. Small wastebasket
  15. Storage Box #1
  16. Storage Box #2

All of these items were new when he got them (iow, he's the first owner).

"The Catch":

  1. All-or-Nothing: You must accept delivery of all items. You can't pick and choose ("Can I have just the ebike?" -> No.) Whether you keep them, sell them, donate them, or throw away what you don't want is up to you.
  2. Fixed Delivery Window: Delivery is set for August 21 between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM. You must be available at your specified location within 3 miles of campus during that window to receive the call from Scholar Storage and accept the delivery.

FAQ

  1. How do I know this is real?
    If interested, DM me your Purdue email address (@purdue.edu). My son will email you from HIS official Purdue address, and you'll reply from yours to confirm you're both Purdue students. We will then set up a brief Zoom call (parents welcome) where you can ask any questions and view his official USAF / USSF enlistment paperwork.

  2. Will I be asked to pay anything?
    NO. Absolutely zero money will exchange hands—no fees, no deposits, no credit card, no Zelle, no PayPal. We already paid for storage and delivery by Scholar Storage within 3 miles of campus.

  3. What about the sealed boxes/bags? Can I see inside them?
    We'll send you photos of the stuff in storage, but everything is locked in storage in Indiana while we're in California, so we cannot show you the contents of the boxes or the duffel bags. This is similar to a storage auction where people buy stuff that was left in storage —except your cost is $0 and you know for sure that you are getting an e-bike, mini-fridge, microwave at an absolute minimum.

  4. How do I know my time isn't going to be wasted waiting around?
    During our Zoom call, you can watch me live-share my screen while I log into the Scholar Storage website and change the official delivery address to the exact location you specify. You'll see it updated in real-time in their system.

I'M INTERESTED. WHAT DO I DO NEXT?

If interested, DM me with your Purdue email address. My son will email you from HIS official Purdue address, and you'll reply from yours to confirm you're both Purdue students. We will then set up a brief Zoom call (parents welcome) where you can ask any questions and view his official USSF enlistment paperwork.

If this offer has been claimed, I'll post in the comments. If I don't post that it's claimed, it means it's still unclaimed.

Looking for Spring '27 Housing

Hey everyone, I am a male student at Purdue looking for a sublease this upcoming spring only. Preferably a 1b1b and within a 10-15 drive to campus, but I am open to roommates as well! If you have a sublease or know anyone else who does, please DM me. Thank you!

[SUBLEASE]: 2 SLOTS AVAILABLE: 715/Month 4B2B 1,044 SQFT, Walking Distance from Campus

Location: Victory on Salisbury
Sublease Takeover: My roommate and I are currently looking to sublease our two units. Sublease is either Fall Semester (8/20/26 - 1/1/27) or full year from 8/20/26 -> 7/31/27. We both are currently locked between 2 leases, and because of this, we’re willing to get off this lease by any means. Please, if you are even slightly interested, shoot a DM or email me (akokate@purdue.edu) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!! We’d be willing to compensate you significantly for taking up our lease, and we are eager to answer any questions you have. Any sublease costs we’d cover on our side.

Amenities: Kitchen, Couch and TV, Rooms furnished with Desk and Bed

Roommates: You’d have two other roommates (M) along with the 2nd person to take a sublease, they are both undergrad upperclassmen and both are our close friends and are very chill, reasonable people. We’d be willing to share their details if you're interested.

At this point we are desperate to get off this lease and would be willing to accommodate nearly anything so please don’t hesitate to ask questions / show any interest.

EDIT: I wanna reclarify a few things about the rent rq. The rent is actually 749/Month without Ulilities, however, they also threw in a 1000 gift card along with my lease once moved in. That would most likely transfer to the new sublease, meaning the true price of rent would be around 749*12 -1000 (655/month for full year). Utilities not included.
