Spend Less On Your Rent?
Rent is costly for those getting out on their own in today's economy. You can cut back on your rent for the month by finding a roommate to share the load and help out on the cost of utilities. A potential roommate could be a friend or acquaintance whom you already know, or a person you found online. It is best to be paired with a roommate who has passed a background check and has steady employment, or access to regular income and a stable personality. If you can find someone who meets these qualifications, having a roommate can easily help you cut your monthly rent in half. If you are still searching for an apartment, consider efficiency apartments and studio apartments as a way to keep the monthly rent bill at a minimum.

Can a warrant be issued to a person for not paying a month of rent even if no bills where in that persons name and cash was paid with no receipts?
A person may be responsible for rent if they agreed to pay rent, even if their name is not on the bill. A verbal agreement to pay rent is enforceable. Note that if rent was paid in cash and no receipt was issued then the renter has no proof of rent paid and the landlord can screw them over by accusing them of not paying. Renters should always insist on getting a receipt for rent paid - especially if paying in cash.
What are advantages of having a roommate?
A roommate can help with the rent/mortgage, utilities, cooking, cleaning, maintenance, security. A roommate can help with loneliness. However, a roommate can also get on your nerves, (and you on theirs), be a slob, fail to keep up their half of the bargain, snore, not respect your privacy,or have other really bad annoying habits. Be careful who you pick for your roommate. Best friends don't always make the best roommates either.
