So just to keep it short, trying to buy a house with my girlfriend, we're only 1.5 years into our relationship but we're in a good position but I'm not looking to marry yet for another 2-3 years probably.
Is it a good idea for us to even buy a house together? If everything comes crashing down to a stop for any reason at all, I figure everything will be ok as long as we both put 50/50 all the way in, downpayment and monthly mortgage. Worst comes to worst is we sell the house and split whatever it is right down the middle. I'd like to iterate that things are going very well between the two of us so I don't see this happening, but i'm just emergency prepping.
Can it be that simple? Anything I might get blindsided with legally? Another thing is.. if we end up finding a dream house that is more expensive, if she doesn't have enough to put the 50/50 downpayment, would it be ok for me to pay more for the dp and then she pays more for mortgage until we get to 50/50 again? Any advice for this i would take as well
