You can split rent with your partner by paying half each or by dividing it up based on income. It's important to work together to determine the right option for your personal and joint financial health.
Basic co-signer requirements for an apartment (almost always required): Must be at least 18 years old (some landlords require 21+) Good to excellent credit score (typically 670+, though some landlords require 720+) Steady income with proof of employment or financial resources.
Unfortunately, the law in California does not require your landlord to allow your new spouse to move into the apartment or to approve your spouse as an additional tenant. That seems unreasonable and a bit crazy, but the law defers (on this issue) to the terms of your lease.
Just tell the prospective landlord that both of you would be living in the apartment and that both of you are prepared to be liable for the full monthly rent (which is by far the most normal way to share an apartment with a significant other).
Here's how to get out of a lease: Understand the potential penalties. The landlord tenant laws that allow you to break a lease are different from state to state. Check your lease. Talk to your landlord about breaking a lease. Offer to help find a new tenant. Consider subletting to avoid breaking a lease.
The landlord tenant laws that allow you to break a lease are different from state to state. In many places, you can get out of your lease without penalty for a number of reasons, such as domestic violence, an unsafe environment, or if you've been called up for military service.
Talk to the landlord. DO NOT SUBLET without permission from your landlord. Most lease contracts do not permit subletting. Offer to your landlord if he/she lets you move then he/she can keep the deposit. That's a good way to get out of a lease. This might be cheaper option than paying the entire lease term.
Relationship Stage: Many experts suggest that couples should be together for at least 6 months to a year before moving in together. This allows time to build a strong foundation and understand each other's habits and compatibility.
If you have a place and your landlord approves of an additional occupant, your partner can sign your original lease and become a cotenant.
Legally, yes, he can do so, unless there's a court order that prevents him (usually temporary orders during the pendancy of divorce, etc...). Otherwise, a home is owned by both of you, and you BOTH have the right to allow others to move into the property, even without the other's consent.
