What Is A Fair Rent For A Lodger Who's Related?
14 Answers
My boyfriend's brotherr has recently moved in with us and plans to stay long-ter. But shortly after he moved in, I lost my job. I'm looking for full-time employment, but we are seriously struggling on my boyfriends wage.
His brother gives us £50 per week for his food, but nothing towards bill.
We have to pay £575 per month Rent, plus Council Tax, Water Rates, Gas and Electricity, plus food and other shopping.
My boyfriend earns just over £200m per week and we;re falling behind with all our bills.
IO have suggested that his brother pays 1/3 towards all our house-hold bills, which I think is more than fair, especially as he earnsAT LEAST £100 per week MORE than my boyfriend. He gets the same benefits as we do, so I can't see what the problem is.

I charge my nephew £80 per week including dinner. Of course he can help himself to coffee/ tea/ toast/ cereal etc... That's cheap. He should pay 1/3 if he's living in the house the same as you two. If he's living in his room then maybe less. What's the set up?

he should be paying 1/3 of everything, that is, rent=192. per mth. plus 1/3 council tax, water gas and electricity. he could buy his own food plus continue giving 50 for his food. if u had someone renting the room, i am sure that u would have negotiated similar amounts. u do not mix business with pleasure
