Whos house do you live in?

Pssst

If you live with your partner be in married or not,whos house do you live in?

If you live in a house that is owed solely by one partner,does that cause any issues on either side? What about long term?

At the moment, I live in the house my Partner rents. I think I'm a named tenant.

Before this, I lived in the house he owned. He bought it, he paid for it, it was solely in his name.

It was never treated like that though, it was as much my home as his, and never caused any issues. I was happy to live in it without having any claim over it. I imagine when we buy a house again, it'll probably be the same set up.

Do you have children? If not,are you worried that one day he could put your bags on the step and shut the door behind you?

We are married, and will have a baby soon, so I don't feel concerned.

He did offer to put my name on the deeds when he owned, but I didn't feel it nessercary. He is a very reasonable bloke, and I can't see him abandoning me and kicking me out unless I really deserve it!

I own my home with my OH, previously lived with him in his owned home. As it wasn't my house I wasn't willing to contribute above an average rent as I didn't want to pay toward his mortgage and get nothing back, hence we moved & now split things. Found it too complicated to live in 'his' house.

The bank and I own my home - OH is allowed to live here

If he ever steps out of line it's nice to be able to remind him :rotfl:

Currently I live in my parents house...with my DH.

He works a way five days a week and we are looking to buy. This has been going on for too long: we were abroad and came back ready to buy and then the world went tits upwards.

My arents are truely ace about it, and we look on the positive side of it: my parents feel very close to DH, more like an adopted son than an in law, and if they should become ill or need the favour returned in the future then a lot of the awkwardness normally arising will have been got through. We have even talked about buying a bigger place together...and its DH and I who don't want to!

When we buy it will be OUR house, though I no longer work. A very large percentage of the deposit is 'mine' and DH will provide the mortage payments. If it were different though, it would still be our house.

I live at my Ohs home which she owns, My house I use as my office but may need premises soon. Ideally would like to sell both and buy something bigger, but that plan isn't feasible at the moment.

I own (or rent from the bank) my house... Hubby moved in with me last year after we got married... Our ideal plan is to move from here to a house off this estate but still close enough that DD doesn't have to change schools... In that instance, hubby would be the mortgage holder as he's now the one with the job and I'm the one that grows the babies...

I live in OH's house, ownership currently shared with Bank of Scotland......in 5 years it will be all his.

I don't worry about him kicking me out - he works away during the week, so it's more likely to be him who gets locked out.....anyway, I'm the beneficiary so it doesn't worry me (he has no kids & his brothers both own homes miles away so wouldn't want this one!).

We are both on the mortgage - we have a 50/50 split - he pays for it and decorates, I clean it on a daily basis and look after the kids
