What a household agreement can do

It does not replace a lease

The formal agreement should define occupancy, payments, deposits, and legal responsibility.

It can evolve

Review the rules after the first month and change what does not work by mutual agreement.

Specific beats vague

Write dates, amounts, and notice periods to reduce mismatched expectations.
