An increasing number of over-50s are searching for house and flat-shares due to the prohibitive cost of housing in the UK, according to property-sharing websites.
Flat-sharing site SpareRoom told the BBC that since 2011 it had seen a 239% rise in 55 to 64-year-olds looking for house-shares and a 114% increase for the 45-to-54 age group.
We’d like to hear from renters over 50 who live in a flat or house-share. How have housing costs affected your living situation? What is it like? Have you been living with others for years, or is this a recent change?
