choose who to share with in a student flat

For your first year with a bit of luck you should have been living in the University's halls of residence.usually after that first year you have to make a decision of who to live with in your second and hopefully other years.



During that year you will have hopefully developed a network of friends that you can leverage to find the ideal group of people to share with. Even then it is a difficult decision.




My old flat by Robert Scarth



what generally happens is that one or two students take the initiative and find a house with a student lettings agent in nottingham, put down a holding deposit on a house to rent. The property is then reserved and gives the initiators time to find the remaining members of the house.



It is better if you are the initiator.That way you get to pick where you want to live and who you want to live with. When choosing your housemates start with a bit of self-analysis. Think about the type of people would fit in with your personality. Try and build up the household slowly, one person at a time. When you have selected one person invite them to help you interview the next possible person. This way you should end up with a group of like minded friends.



Useful questions to ask when interviewing prospective housemates:

Are you tidy?

do you like housework?

What type of music do you like?

Are you sure you can afford your share of the rent?

Do you smoke regularly?

Do you like to drink mid week or just at the weekend?

do you cook?
