How rent splits by room: calculated examples
Calculated examples · updated October 2, 2026
These are 8 calculated examples of how a flat's rent splits by room: flats of 2 to 5 rooms, with rents from €900 to €2,400 a month. In each one, the most expensive room pays between 31% and 165% more than the cheapest. Every example lists the room sizes, any private bathroom or balcony, and what each room pays.
About these figures
These are calculated examples with simulated flatmates, not data from users. Each amount is rounded to the euro on its own, so the rows of a table can differ from the rent by a euro. Your flat will split differently: it depends on the rooms and on the people.
