Many people have a roommate at some point in their lives. It can be during college, when living in a dorm or apartment. You might have a roommate to help pay rent or a mortgage in an apartment or house. If you do plan on having a roommate, there are some important questions to ask. Knowing the answers can help prevent having a bad roommate, but also allow you to know what to expect. Questions about cleaning habits, jobs, sleep habits, do they have a job, or what they do for fun...these can all help you to narrow down whether or not you want to be roommates. They will likely ask the same questions, so be prepared. There will be compromises to make from you and your roommate. Thanks for listening.
