yours2share strongly recommends that any sharing agreement is recorded in writing and that all sharers take professional independent legal advice before signing any sharing agreement. This is standard practice for purchase of real property and is also essential for the purchase of other high value assets.

There are three fundamental mechanisms for sharing all assets:

• Joint ownership by all parties (co-ownership, shared ownership, partial ownership or fractional ownership)
• One party owns and the other(s) pay for use or occupation through a licence, lease or hire agreement
• Shared use, where no money changes hands, as both sides benefit in other ways.
