Matt, just a few questions since in the past my college friends pulled off what your proposing for one year at the U of FL. How will rent be divided?, who will be responsible

for purchasing daily necessities or will that be a shared responsibility?. How will chores

be assigned with regards to maintenance and up keep of where your going to live?

Will you require a credit or back ground check or first last and a security deposit for your fellow renters?. Biggest question, will your Land Lord allow you to sublet any space where your going to live?

I look forward to your answers since most folks especially here have no clue what they are getting the selfs into by sharing housing with other folks?

All the best.

It's quite common over here. A lot of landlords rent properties as house shares. I had a brilliant time when I was in one in Manchester. Meet some great mates that I'm still close to now. Before that place I lived with an old mate in a flat who turned out want paying his share of rent. As it was a joint lease I was responsible for paying his share. I've not spoken since.

Many of us have done it as a first step out of living with your parents.

 

You learn a lot about other people and yourself.

 

I'm glad I don't do it now, and hope I never have to do it again.

I just don't like people in general so I think a house share would send me into a mental brake down. Have done it in the past but it was a bit of an alcohol fuel party 7 nights a week. Seemed like a right laugh in hindsight but I was probably the only one chipping in for the rent.
