'I'm paying rent to my parents to get on the property ladder - you can save around £10,000 a year'
With the cost of rent soaring across Greater Manchester in the cost of living crisis, it is now even more difficult for young people to afford to move out of their family homes. But for parents, supporting their adult children comes with a price tag - which is why a growing number of them are charging rent.
Louise moved into her family home in Didsbury last year and earns her keep by splitting the cost of utilities and food with them while she saves for a deposit. In the meantime, she also renovated her childhood bedroom into a guest room for her parents to use when she moves out. “The first six months were difficult. The main issue was establishing that I was an independent person. I think my parents expected us to go back to what it was like before I went to uni when I was 17," she said.
Jess Rothwell, 20, moved into her boyfriend's parents' house just before she turned 18. “During COVID, we realised if we stayed in two different houses, we wouldn’t be able to see each other. So I moved in with him and his parents. After Covid, I decided to stay,” Jess told the Manchester Evening News.
