Hi Chapos throwaway for obvious reasons.

I’ve managed to buy an apartment, two bedrooms. I live in it, but I rent the other room out. Is it unethical for me to hide that I’m the owner?

I don’t really lie-lie, like if I’m asked straight up I’ll answer, but I’ll avoid it if possible.

It’s mostly because it creates an odd power dynamic and I’d rather have a flatmate than a tenant if that makes sense.

Reason I bought is I don’t want to deal with landlords, obviously.

Do I get the wall?

    Even if you were a landlord, landlords that own a single property aren't going to get the wall. Is it unethical? Idk honestly. If they don't know they might talk a lot of shit about you though.

    Maybe just explain that you don't want to be treated like a landlord and that you aren't going to get on them about not cleaning their room enough or whatever
