Stay safe and legal

• Sharing is allowed only with the landlord's permission and without overcrowding. Ask whether the main tenant has the landlord's consent.
• Meet the other families before you agree, and agree kitchen and cleaning rules in writing.
• Children need space and quiet for homework; ask who else lives in the flat and their work hours.
• Pay only after viewing and always get a receipt. Read our shared housing rules guide.
