Does "yet" make a difference while being used at the end of a question?
Take, for example, these two sentences.

Have you found anywhere to live YET?
Have you found anywhere to live?

Are they both common and do they mean exactly the same?

Answer

Adding "yet" tells me that you're expecting it to happen.  The question without "yet" doesn't convey that meaning; it's a fairly neutral question.

Answer

Both very common, and in addition to above I would say that it makes it sound like the person has been looking for a house, and hasn't found anywhere.
