Roommate Keeps Having Guests Over - Setting Boundaries

Guests are fine. Excessive guests are a problem. Here's how to handle it without being the 'fun police.'

Check your roommate agreement. If it has a guest policy, refer to it. If not, it's time to add one.

Suggest reasonable limits: overnight guests 3-4 nights per week maximum, advance notice for longer stays.

Talk about shared space impact. If their guest is using the kitchen during your dinner time, that's a real issue.

Overnight guest frequency vs. duration: A partner staying over twice a week is different from a friend visiting for 10 days.

Consider financial impact: more guests means more utilities. Should this be factored into the bill split?

HomeCo lets you log guest notifications so everyone in the house knows what to expect.
