My boyfriend has been hinting at moving in together. I don’t mind, it’s been a year and a half plus his lease is ending soon.

I own my apartment, it was my grandmother’s until she passed recently and it’s already paid off.
What would I charge him to live here? Charge him half of co-op fees and maintenance?

Be nice and respectful, I am genuinely asking / I’m like still in mourning.

One other thing beyond splitting coop fees might be agreeing to both contribute $X to a joint fund since you’ll both be saving quite a lot. Depends on your joint financial goals but maybe it’s a travel fund, brokerage, downpayment, wedding, etc

=min(His own current rent, 100% x sum(HOA, Taxes, utilities)

funny

If u guys spoke about marriage or u think it’s going there I likely wouldn’t charge. But I would ask him to help with groceries and other expenses. Or utilities. And if u guys are close to marriage, maybe can also wait till engaged so u don’t feel used. But of course whatever feels right to u! And also if he’s not paying rent and y guys see a future together, hopefully he’s using these savings for ur guys future life.

That’s awesome and seems like u guys came to a great agreement!! And yea everyone is different and some like to see how it goes before which totally makes sense!! Best of luck!!

I don't see anything wrong with splitting the fees and taxes. I think that's 100% reasonable. But just be careful that he is not just moving in with you to save money. If you both see a future together than I say go for it. If not, it will be hard to get rid of him when it's time for him to go.

35-40 % of the Mortage or all of the utilities!!!

Split everything easy

I think half is more than reasonable
