Can I buy a house together with family or friends?

Yes, you can buy a house together with family or friends, for example with three or four people, and combine your incomes to borrow more. It is important to record each person’s ownership share, contributions and exit arrangements in a contract, because joint ownership and joint mortgage liability have long-term consequences. Buying together can make homeownership affordable when one income is not enough.
