Living in a group
Key things to think about in relation to your group are:
- What is your attitude to tidiness? Does everything have to have its place or can you cope with clutter?
- How do you feel about noise?
- Are you an early bird or a night owl?
- Do you all have a comparable income? Some tensions can occur when some of the group go out pubbing and clubbing a lot when others can hardly afford to eat
- How many people do you want to live with and how do you feel about various lovers and friends moving in? It’s easy for groups of four and five to extend as partners move in.
Have a frank discussion before signing contracts, living together can make or break some friendships. If you sign too early, you could be tied into a contract sharing with people you don’t really want to. However, if you get it right, you’ll have a great time living off campus together.
REMEMBER: This property will be your home for the next few months
