Equity sharing is another name for shared ownership or co-ownership. It takes one property, more than one owner, and blends them to maximize profit and tax deductions. Typically, the parties find a home and buy it together as co-owners, but sometimes they join to co-own a property one of them already owns. At the end of an agreed term, they buy one another out or sell the property and split the equity.
A Shared Equity Financing Agreement in Connection with Joint Ownership, Occupancy, and Sale of Real Property is an agreement between two or more parties to share ownership, occupancy, and sale of a piece of real property. In this agreement, the parties agree to share the costs and benefits associated with the property, including mortgage payments, taxes, maintenance, and repairs. The agreement may also specify the responsibilities of each party, such as who is responsible for managing the property, who is responsible for making payments, and who has the right to sell the property. There are two main types of Shared Equity Financing Agreements: Equity Sharing and Joint Venture. Equity Sharing is an arrangement where two or more parties share ownership of the property, with each party owning a percentage of the equity. In a Joint Venture, the parties are usually investing in the purchase of the property, and then splitting the profits upon sale. The terms of the agreement are usually negotiable, and can include a variety of different arrangements.
