FAQ

Respect privacy and boundaries. Don't look through your roommates belongings or private things. Don't borrow or use without asking permission. If it's not yours, leave it. Don't discuss private matters about the roommate (and their social life,) with others. Be polite and considerate.

Any roommate who is named as a tenant in the tenancy agreement is presumptively a tenant with rights and obligations under the Act; whether any roommate is a tenant or not is ultimately a legal determination that can only be made by a Residential Tenancy Branch arbitrator who will weigh the factors in favour and ...

TLDR: Unless anything is an inhumane and borderline crazy obligation, it is legally enforceable, but should there be problems regarding the wording or phrasing then it can be contested.

All parties agree to discuss frankly and unemotionally all concerns with their roommates before problems occur. All parties agree to negotiate in good faith, should the need arise. All parties will respect one another's privacy, sleep schedules, and other requests that are not unreasonably burdensome.

At the absolute maximum, depending on how "extended" the guest's stay has been, he or she should be out of the house within a week. If you have a good relationship and your roommate is relatively sane, this should be more than enough to get the freeloader out.

Do Not Use Each Other's Things Without Asking. Not using each other's things without asking is one of the more obvious roommate rules. While some people are more casual about sharing, others are not. You have to learn what kind of person your roommate is and then act ingly.

Setting clear roommate boundaries is key to harmonious co-living. Begin by establishing expectations through open discussions and written agreements. Respect personal space and agree on quiet hours to ensure a peaceful living environment. Share household chores and manage guest policies to prevent conflicts.

Overnight guest rule One solution could be to implement an 'overnight guests rule'. This basically means your roommate's partner can stay over as many nights a week as your roommate stays at theirs – meaning the maximum number of nights they can have their partner stay in a week is three.

Respect Personal Space Ask permission before entering someone's room, even if the door is open. Respect each other's belongings and privacy by avoiding touching or moving anything in the room without asking first. Also, talk about how common areas will be used and how storage space will be divided.
