Sharing a house

Sharing a house with other people can make the rent cheaper.

You could live with:

  • family
  • friends
  • other people who are looking to share a house.

You need to talk to the people you share a house with to work out how you will share responsibilities, like keeping the house clean.

To find a share house, you can:

  • talk to people you know
  • put a flyer on your community noticeboard
  • search on websites like the Flatmate.com website or the Gumtree website.
