In a landed house, residents handle all the cleaning. Large spaces (living rooms, kitchen, stairs) mean more work, so housemates should set a chore routine or hire a cleaner together. Agreeing on who cleans what (and when) keeps the big home comfortable for everyone.
Set polite boundaries. Keep your door closed or locked when you need personal space or quiet. Communicate with housemates about quiet hours (for example, agree on lowering noise after a certain time at night). Use headphones if you’re watching movies or listening to music late. Respecting each other’s schedules and discussing noise or privacy concerns openly will help everyone coexist comfortably.
Check the agreement for notice and replacement terms. Align on advertising, viewings, and how utilities are split during the gap. Keep shared costs transparent so no one subsidizes unfairly. Get approvals in writing before a new person joins.
Short stays exist but many landlords prefer 12‑month leases. If you need flexibility, ask about minimum term, extension options, and early termination fees before you pay a deposit.
Deposits are security against damage and unpaid bills, usually returned after handover if conditions are met. Read the break clause carefully, including notice requirements, potential fees, and whether a replacement tenant is allowed. Keep everything documented and dated.
Ask whether pets are allowed, any size or breed restrictions, and cleaning expectations before move out. Disclose allergies or sensitivities early. If you need small modifications, like childproof latches, get written consent and agree on reinstatement responsibilities.
