Roommate Capability – Tips for Finding the Perfect Roommate

 
 

Everyone wants to find the perfect roommate when moving to a new place but achieving roommate capability can be difficult. Like choosing a new partner, there are plenty of fish in the sea. However, there aren’t always a lot of good options. What’s more, unlike with dating, you simply cannot break up with your roommate if things do not work out. There are contracts, meaning you will have to stick it out and try to avoid confrontation if your living agreement goes south.
Thankfully, there are ways to avoid an uncomfortable living situation altogether. Here are some tips for achieving roommate capability and finding the perfect roommate when moving to Alachua, Florida:

Don’t Room With Your Friends

You might love spending time with your best friends, but that doesn’t mean that they are a good fit for a roommate. Oftentimes, living together can ruin a friendship. So, instead of running to your closest friend, branch out when looking for a roommate. You are likely to find a better fit and save a friendship.

Ask the Tough Questions

Knowing all about your roommate before you even consider moving in with them is a must. That means you will need to ask a lot of questions, even some of the tough questions like “What is your credit score?” or “Are there any health concerns that I need to know about?” That way you are not blindsided when living together. 

Know Their Expectations

While you want to make sure that your new roommate is a good match for you, you also need to consider if you are a good match for them. That means knowing their expectations. Do they want a neat-freak or a laid back roommate? Make sure to confirm before committing.

Make Sure That They Will Contribute

No one wants to live with a moocher. So, before you settle on a roommate, make sure that you know their money situation and that they can pay their fair share. Also, discuss chores. They must be willing to pitch in on household upkeep.
