A Nebraska roommate agreement is used to document the contractual agreement made between Co-Tenants of a property being leased. Oftentimes, a few people may agree it is preferable to co-habit with one another in a residence that would otherwise be beyond their financial ability to attain then uphold the financial responsibility of living there. Usually only one or two of these Co-Tenants will hold the Master Lease with the Property Owner.
It should be noted that while this contract does not obligate the Property Owner to the non-lease holding members of this household, it is a legal and binding contract between the Co-Tenants and is enforceable in a court of law.
Rental Application – A document used by the landlord to obtain information about a potential tenant’s past and current employment, references, and background.
