How to Make Sure You Get the Right Roommate When Searching for Apartments in Portland

The downsides to having a roommate usually crop up when two incompatible people get together to share space and the monthly rent. This can usually happen when either has money problems, smokes, has a lot to be desired when it comes to personal hygiene and noise level tolerance.

One must choose carefully one's roommate to ensure that future misunderstanding and time loss can be completely avoided.

Some ways by which you can get a better understanding:

- Job Status - a job now means an ability to pay rent in the coming months.

- Preferences - smoking, drinking, cleanliness

- Job shifts - Morning, evening shifts work for some, don't work for others.

- Chores - Proper delegation of daily and weekly household chores and if either member has an issue doing his or hers.
