HOUSE DYNAMICS
No set rules, all dietary lifestyles are fine, we have a mix in the house already. Generally a queer, friendly and laid back household. As such, we have a preference for another queer housemate, but this is not essential if you are a good match. Communal cleaning is completed weekly against a rota. Friends and partners welcome in the house, but this is not a party house, and we wouldn't expect large gatherings on a regular basis.

ACCESSIBILITY
The flat is a maisonette, split across the first and second floor of a terrace house. There are a few stairs to get to the hall from street level, then another flight of stairs to let to the first floor where we have the kitchen, bathroom and living room. Upstairs from there are the three bedrooms.

We rent privately from a landlord. We have a good relationship with him and we can ask him if we need anything. The contract is a statutory periodic formal agreement (monthly rolling).

BENEFITS
The landlord has previously said that he doesn't take new tenants who are on benefits. However, previous housemates have applied for UC after moving in.

REFERENCE
The landlord has previously asked tenants to provide a work reference/ statement of employment and a previous landlord's reference if you have this.

DEPOSIT, RENT AND BILLS
