A Nevada roommate agreement gives roommates or co-tenants the security of knowing their roommate terms are set in stone and enforceable for the duration of the agreement each has entered. This is a powerful tool for promoting a positive relationship in such a living arrangement. A handshake verbal agreement may not necessarily provide validity to one’s argument or one’s understanding of an agreement they have entered. Simply put: there would be no proof.
A written contract provides stability and continuity to an agreement. In some cases in which there is no previous relationship between the roommates, this contract provides security in that it will be enforceable in a court of law should any signing party violate its terms and conditions while it is in effect.
