The apartment our younger one is renting with a roommate has only her name on the lease; the roommate’s lease is considered separate and handled by the complex. While they share a space, they do not share legal obligations. We are guarantors on the lease. Older D does not have a roommate in her apartment, but the leasing scenario is the same. For both kids we went with an all-inclusive pre-furnished type complex.

We’re currently dealing with the hassle of older D having shared a house this past year with three roommates and having to make sure all the water, power, cable, etc is taken care of by the end of this month. Add to that the house is not in great shape after this year of the roomies having a cat, and who’s going to take the hit for that. Ugh. Not doing that again.
