A homesharing agreement governs the terms of the relationship between the host and housemate. A positive homesharing experience begins with clear, transparent, and honest communication upfront.
Sparrow provides a customizable homeshare agreement template as a service for you to tailor for your needs. This includes elements such as the term and termination, rent and deposit, bedroom and common living areas details, house rules and household chore support.
While regulations may vary across provinces and territories, the nature of a homesharing arrangement constitutes a living accommodation in which a housemate shares a bathroom or kitchen facility with the host. For example, pursuant to the Residential Tenancy Act (Ontario), the residential tenancy laws and regulations of Ontario do not apply to the agreement as it would in a landlord and tenant relationship.
