Currently, a type of housing called share house — living in the same house with non-family members — is on the rise. Shared house is a type of house where each person has their own room with a lock like an apartment, but the kitchen, living room, bathroom, toilet... are shared.
The rent is on par with surrounding apartments, but because there is a shared area, there is no need to put a refrigerator in the room, so you can use your room more spaciously. In addition, not only can you enjoy the freedom of living alone, but you can also interact with people living in the same area, so you are less lonely and insecure. Living with people of different professions, different countries, different ages, you may have interesting discoveries.
However, to live comfortably, there are a few things to keep in mind. Be sure to go see the place in person and confirm whether your lifestyle is compatible with the people living there. You should check both age and occupation. Regarding how to use common areas, you should also know the rules in advance, because cleaning or noise can also cause trouble. In addition, you should confirm whether furniture such as a bed or electrical appliances such as a washing machine is available: if it is available, when you move in, you will have to give up what you have, and when you move out, you will have to buy it again. If you pay attention to the above points before moving in, you will be less likely to fail.
