Iowa tenants, if you are going to share rental accommodation with one or more other people, you need to sign a
Roommate Agreement to put down in writing each person's rights and responsibilities.
The landlord should also sign the Agreement. Provisions of the Agreement include:
- how rent and utilities are to be paid;
- overnight guests;
- code of conduct;
- subletting;
- responsibilities of each of the roommates;
- abandonment of the premises by a roommate.
This
Iowa Roommate Agreement is provided in MS Word format, and is fully editable to fit your specific circumstances.
