Description

The Roommate Agreement is a legal document designed for individuals sharing a living space in Oakland, outlining key rules and responsibilities. Each roommate is responsible for an equal share of rent, with clear instructions on payment and liability, ensuring all roommates understand their financial obligations. The agreement also details procedures for terminating tenancy, requiring a written notice of at least thirty days, and outlines responsibilities for finding a replacement. Household expenses are equally shared, while individual costs must be paid promptly by each roommate. Guest policies are defined to allow overnight visitors with specified notice, ensuring mutual comfort. Involuntary termination clauses specify conditions under which a roommate may be asked to leave, protecting the rights of all parties involved. The document includes provisions for the security deposit, living arrangements, household chores, and policies regarding smoking and alcohol, making it comprehensive for shared living situations. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, property owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants in creating clear expectations and reducing potential conflicts among roommates.
