Thank you for another story with good terms.
This lesson reminded me of the house I was renting in Australia. Originally, I rented this whole house with 3 rooms, front/back yard, garage space with my mate. Eventually, the other moved out so later on I sublet two rooms.
I set the rent for them according to avarage room rents that I could see from notice boards at schools and restaurants. This almost made the amount that I was paying as the tenant of the house. I was really lucky one.
Now I live in Japan. Housing/renting scenes are very much different from down south. I hear a little bit but definitely sharing a house or rooms is not very common here.
How about China? and everyone’s country?
