Ask about schedule
- What time do you usually wake up and go to sleep?
- Do you work from home often?
- How important are quiet hours to you?
Questions to ask a potential roommate before moving in
Most bad flatshares do not fail because of one big surprise. They fail because simple questions were skipped until it was too late.
Ask about home habits
- How clean do you like shared spaces to stay?
- How often do you have friends over?
- Do you smoke, and if so, where?
- Do you have pets or want pets soon?
Ask about money and timing
- What rent range feels realistic for you?
- Are bills split evenly?
- When do you need to move in?
- How long do you expect to stay?
Ask about the practical rules
A quiet, honest conversation about guests, cleaning, shared purchases and notice period saves more stress than people expect.
