Should I purchase a home with someone without being married to them? We are just in a relationship.?
We both want the same kind of future, but I have been seeing some things in him as a person that kinda make me wonder if he can handle such a huge responsibilty. I had a home before and sold it, so I know the commitment it takes. He isn't irresponsible with money or anything like that, but he's never owned a home before. Also, we have moments where we just cannot see eye to eye on things, and he makes me feel like it just wouldn't work. I certainly don't want to be tied to a mortgage with someone that I can't get along with, but I go back and forth in my mind. We have our good days and bad days, but I just wonder....

If you make sure you have some kind of legal paper stating that if something happends between you 2 that what you had coming into the house leaves with you and anything you buy together you sell and split the money, I know that sometimes when you bring up something like that they always say "What do you not trust me!" just nicely tell them that it is for their's and your protection. that way you do not have to end up on People's Court fighting over stuff.

As you are having doubts about this person you already know the answer. No this person is not the right person to take as a business partner when investing in a house. Buying a home is one of the biggest commitments a person can make in life, next to marriage and having children, if you have any doubts about this person you should not proceed. If you do jointly purchase a home with them then even if you later separate they will continue to be in your life until the house is sold.

If you have any doubts at all then don't do it. If you do decide to do it then make sure that you have a set agreement in place for who is responsible for what and how things will be handled if things don't work out between you two.
