With a little care, you can reduce the risks to a level that most people consider acceptable. There are two areas of risk:
- The personal risk of meeting a stranger
- The financial risk of the sharing agreement
Safety gives some guidance on minimising the personal risks and financial risks and explains the checks you can make on other people. Sharing agreements has a checklist of the issues that you should ensure are negotiated, agreed and written into the documentation. These will help to protect you from the financial risks.
