Roommate Agreement

When roommates move in together make sure you get them on a separate document outlining your requirements for roommates. Remind them you’ll only take one rent check (not three) and that you’ll only cut one check back to them after move out. Advise them you’ll never drop anyone off the lease whether they still live there or not. Roommates love each other when they move in but like other community living arrangements, often fall apart over time. Make sure there are plenty of fees. Roommates can be high maintenance so make sure you’re getting paid well to put up with them.
