If you are renting a property with one or more people, you can use a Co-Tenancy Agreement to help ensure that your living situation is harmonious. A Co-Tenancy Agreement helps you avoid misunderstandings by specifying which things each roommate is responsible for.
Similar to a rental agreement, you can use a Co-Tenancy Agreement to establish each roommate's responsibilities, including the payment of utilities, repairs, rent payments, and other expenses. A Co-Tenancy Agreement can also be used to define the house rules everyone is expected to follow, so that each roommate knows what to expect. A copy of all written agreements with the landlord, including the Lease Agreement, should be attached to this document.
