However, instead of just executing a quitclaim deed to each as tenants-in-common, if the decree doesn't detail the terms of co-tenancy, co-ownership, they should execute an agreement that addresses all issues that surface when there is co-ownership of a home. For example,<br> <br>1. Does either party get to live in the home? If so, which one? What if they both want to live in the home? How to decide?<br>2. Who is responsible for the mortgage payments?<br>3. Who is responsible for costs to maintain the home? Yardwork, broken windows, broken water pipes, furnace repair, etc.<br>4. What are ordinary costs of maintenance and what are optional improvements? broken water pipes, furnace repair, Painting the interior or exterior, updating a bathroom or kitchen, etc.<br>5. What if one party wants to sell/ improve and the other doesn’t want to sell/improve? <br>6. What if one party can’t afford to pay costs for maintenance/ improvements and the other advances costs? How will they be compensated if and when the house sells?<br>7. If one party lives in the home and pays the mortgage, do they get credit for mortgage payments upon the sale of the home? If so, how will that credit be determined (after subtracting fair market rental value? Based on how much it reduced the mortgage loan)?<br>8. What will be the ADR process to use in the event of a dispute on any issue?<br><br>There are probably other issues that need to be addressed (like whatever else is ordinarily in a rental agreement- like pets, etc.) but the above are the most common.<br> <br>andrekita<br>Law Office of F.
