I have two housemates, so part of my home is rented out (a basement apartment to one person and one of the two mater bedrooms with bath to the other). These are long term arrangements (almost 5 years duration) with mature adults and we live quite independently of one another (two kitchens and separate private sitting areas, plus two small gardens). However, we all cooperate on things like snow removal, getting the trash and recycling out, and short rides to transit or car repair locations. The rents pay the mortgage, taxes and utilities, with a real profit at the end.
