cotenants
Shared lease holders
Cotenants are two or more people who share tenancy of a property, each holding equal rights to occupy the space.
The term applies whether the arrangement involves renting or owning.
Cotenants typically share responsibility for rent or mortgage payments and may be jointly liable for damages or lease violations.
The cotenants split the monthly rent three ways.
The relationship is governed by the lease or ownership agreement rather than by any personal relationship between the parties.
