About this document

A personal property agreement records who owns items such as furniture, equipment, vehicles or collections, where two people share or own things together. It lists each item with its owner, what each contributed, who may use it, who pays for upkeep and insurance, and what happens if the arrangement ends or an owner dies.

This blank form is for items only: it says it does not cover land or buildings. It is completed by hand and signed by both owners. It is useful for housemates, couples, friends and family who buy or share things.
