I think your flatmates right. He can also claim to some leg work at the beginning which scuppers your plan. You probably should have checked before assuming you get the pick of the rewards for your hard work. Toss a coin or as Ed mentioned work out a compromise.

Sorry

If by "legwork" you mean his ex- mentioned in passing conversation, "oh yeah, we're moving out just before your tenancy comes up", then sure. Except that as of today, the property was advertised, so me or the other guy who'd done all the house-hunting would've seen it today

Seems he was the ideas man though... and you cant take that away from him. Otherwise I would def agree with you.

don't invite him and get some one else who you can charge more rent for... or may be his Ex... just to rub salt into the wound...





(did I really just say that on an open forum... arr well no.2 happen)

It seems like he, in his head, feels that he has an increased stake in the house as his ex lived there and he started the ball rolling.
However £475 is a lot of money and so be fair it take a lot more effort keeping the ball rolling than starting it.
Tell him to quit whining, you call shotgun on the room and if he complains kick him in the nads like a grown up would do
P.S. Whenever things like this come up with me I am also normally the one who subs everyone else. Sometimes people don't realise that you are not just subbing them but everyone else also. I had to fork out almost £900 on my current flat in admin n deposit and I still have to share my room. Aint girlfriends a pain in the ****?

Sorry, havent time to read all the posts but i would suggest that ou decided on various prices for the rooms. So the one with the ensuite pays x amount more than their share and that x amount is how much less the person in the smallest room pays. the middle room pays the going rate.
That way everyones a winner. Nearly.

Now for all my fabulous advice i want your garage please

[Jayneflakes]

Find out which room his ex lived in and then spray it with something foul.

My bet is that he wants her old room, so he can mope in self pitying gloom and hope to find some of her old clothes to cuddle up to at night.

You could also hide prawns in the curtains and wait for him to complain about the stench and then agree to swap rooms. You will quickly clean the room up and live contentedly in peace and acrimony.

Good luck, you will probably need it...
