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?

    At cost, if we include the interest accruing to the bank as a cost.

    Maintenance/upkeep etc is my responsibility of course. Utilities split.

    I won’t say everything’s to my liking, but I’ll sink spare cash into improvements.

      I do not. What proportion of the total loan repayment is this person paying and why are they not being offered an ownership share equal to that?
