How to eSign a document: Sign Room lease agreement electronically

Something to consider when moving in with a roommate is who is going to be the renter or the occupant that is listed on the rental agreement. In some cases, only one of you will be listed. And in others, the rental agreement may specify both names if you have a roommate. So what should you do? Well, in today's video, we're going to cover everything you need to know about what a rental agreement is, what are your rights, what you should do with a roommate and how that will affect your type of occupancy and more. So if you're ready, let's jump into the first point of what is a residential rental agreement. The rental agreement, which is often referred to as a lease, is a document that outlines the length of the tenancy, how much rent will be and the responsibilities of both the renter and the landlord during the period where they're entered into the agreement.

Co-renters is the most common type of agreement. And this is where two or more renters share a single lease agreement. Both renters are responsible for paying the rent as well as any repairs or damages to the unit that the renter or their guests may have had. For instance, it's up to the renters themselves to determine who is responsible for what portion of the rent, as well as repairs or damages if there is any. This is usually settled with a roommate agreement. For instance, if you had a roommate that moved out as a co-renter, you yourself would still be responsible for paying the entire amount of rent. And if that roommate left when there was damages to the property, you may be responsible for repairing those damages as your name is still under the lease agreement. In an instance like...
