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?

    When do I have to declare it? In the ad? At the viewing? When it could fit into a conversation? When they ask about it directly?

    Right now I’ve decided on that last one.

      generally i think the correct time is in the ad ("i am renting a room in my flat for co habitation")
