The Quiet Tenant You’ve Been Hoping For — DBS + Re

Hello, I’m Debbie 👋

I’m seeking a peaceful, long-term room to rent so I can reduce overheads and focus fully on growing my business. Ideally, I’d love to find a calm, respectful household — with mature, like-minded people who value peace, kindness, and good energy.

I’ve been a reliable tenant since 2007 — that’s nearly 18 years in the same area. I rented from my previous landlord for 13 years and have been with my current one for the last 5. I'm tidy, independent, and enjoy my own space, but also happy to have a chat in the kitchen!

✅ What I’m Looking For:
A long-term room rental
All bills included
A quiet home with kind, mature energy
A space where I can unwind and recharge
Somewhere I can keep to myself and not disturb others

🎸 A Bit About Me:
Vegan (30+ years), don’t drink, don’t smoke, no pets
Run a music education business for kids, based at Fairkytes Arts Centre, Hornchurch
Work outside the home — just want peace and quiet when I come in
DBS checked (on the Update Service) and work closely with children
Currently recovering from an ankle injury, looking to move in 2–3 months

💡 Open to Creative Arrangements:
If you're a small family or live-in landlord, I'm open to a mutually beneficial exchange — babysitting, school pick-ups, music lessons, light home help, or even occasional admin in exchange for a fair rent reduction. Nothing formal — just something honest and workable for both sides.

🛖Also Open to Alternative Living Setups:
If you have a converted garage, garden room, shed, or unused outhouse, I’d be open to exploring that too — or even placing a small, self-contained tiny home in a garden space if it suited everyone.

💼 Trusted House Contact (Optional Add-on for HMOs or Shared Houses):
In the past, I’ve supported landlords by being an on-site point of contact in shared houses — helping keep the space clean and calm, flagging issues early (like noise or smoking), and helping maintain house standards. I’m open to playing that kind of light supportive role again — especially in homes where people value peace and routine. It could suit landlords who don’t live on-site or anyone looking for a stable, respectful long-termer.

🧠 Why This Is Attractive to a Landlord:
You might have space you’re not using
You might not want someone inside your home — but outside = perfect

I’m low-impact, respectful, and responsible
(i. e. not pitching a rave tent or throwing parties)

Looking forward to finding the right match for this next chapter in my life ✨
Warm wishes,
