The normal rent for a double ensuite room in my area would be €450 - €500 excluding bills (for single occupancy)

That's assuming she doesn't start looking until after the exams. But why can't she start looking now? She's hardly going to be studying 24/7 from now until June.she is making really heavy weather of this and saying she can't move out until July as she will need a full month after the exams to find somewhere.
If this were my kid, I'd (a) be very glad she had such a 'softie' landlord, but (b) give her a clip around the ear for her cheek! (Oops, sorry, that's not allowed any more...)Noor77 said:She is now on at me to get broadband!!!
I have to agree with Cati76 here. No friend would take advantage like this. She knows that she is on to a good thing here. I was in a similiar situation some time ago and I was glad to be rid of them. Bite the bullet, tell her how you feel, cause in the long you're NOT loosing a friend - just a leach.Cati76 said:She is not your friend if she is taking advantage of the situation.

...in her culture people tend to do favours for friends - I suppose she now feels in some way that I should be facilitating her drop in income.... I would feel a bit bad if she messed up her exams because of the move
