You are probably not alone. There are plenty of widow and widowers here that were left alone in a two or three bedroom house. They found another significant other, pooled resources and share one residence. Perhaps that would not be your choice but I’ve seen such arrangements

Yes,
The "home to share" subset of listings is a logical place to post. As others have stated, do a lease agreement in writing, and make that portion of home truly **** friendly/barren.... Quote:

I would avoid renting. Once you become a landlord, they have renter rights. Read some of the squatter (a.k.a. Adverse Possession) nightmares. Consider how many, how long, and how often they may have friends over and overnight. Are they party animals, sketchy, poor hygiene habits, drink excessively, etc. Consider the property is in your name, which means any problems they create on your property are yours to deal with, even if they leave. What if you meet someone (that does happen in TV) and get serious, maybe want to move in together, or become "unseparated" now you have to try to remove a renter. IMO, go slowly, make friends, let nature take its course.

I would exhaust all other options before allowing a stranger to move into my home. A friend maybe, a stranger absolutely not. The bad scenarios far outnumber the possible positive outcomes.

Pleas consider what happens in that situation if the relationship goes sideways. Once your "roommate" becomes a resident/tenant, it can be very difficult to get rid of them if things go badly. You would likely have to go through an eviction process, which even if smooth, could take months.

You know when I see this kind of stuff I instantly think of young people, they do this & so many times their new live in’s always seem to have an excuse for not being able to pay or pay on time. Then they have a heck of a time getting them out, just me I wouldn’t do it. Sounds like you need some place that you can afford not a new tenant. Who pays Property Taxes, your HOA, it just sounds like your asking for some problems or are you actually asking for the opposite sex to move in with you? I’m not trying to be a wise guy but I personally think your asking for trouble!

How separated are you?
If I were looking for a place to live your post would cause me to pass on you.
If I moved in would the old lover be back or just waiting outside to see the new person? Your post projects instability and would be a big red flag for me. To get a quality housemate you should project stability. You may not want to find a friend but they will become closer than many of your friends and know things about you that no one outside of your household will ever know. |

What’s the chance of two Murderers living in the same house!

Another option is on Rent From A Villager. There is an area for just shared homes.
