^^ my landlord and i have almost a family relationship, i have keys to the main house when they leave for holidays and visa versa. At one point i was picking up his kids from school, and was always invited to gatherings and i would show up for free food lol, the wife would always cook abit more so she could leave me some for dinner. Living with them is not all perfect at all, but with a lil communication any issues are resolved asap. my landlord was looking for a person who is responsible and no parties etc etc, i was looking for a place to rest my head every night without worries so it worked out for us.
