What is an Cohabitation Agreement?
A cohabitation agreement is document that outlines certain terms for couples who live together but aren’t married. These agreements often include the following information:
- How finances will be shared
- Who is responsible for what bills
- Who owns the property
- Rules about what happens if the couple separates (like who has to move out and how soon)
- Arrangements for shared pets
- Who is responsible for what debt
The exact terms will depend a lot on whether the property the couple is living in is rented or owned.
These types of agreements are important because they set clear expectations from the beginning. Many people think they will have no problem addressing issues as they arise, but things can get contentious when a couple is about to split up.
