While sharing a home or apartment with roommates is a great way to keep rent costs low, splitting responsibilities and payment among the group can be stressful. There are so many shared household items to take into consideration; however, there are a few essential pieces of information that should be accessible to roommates at all times.

• Website log-in information to view your utility accounts online (gas, electricity, cable, etc.)
• Account passwords (often needed when you call for customer support)
• A copy of your lease and accompanying documents
• Renters Insurance or other insurance information
• Contact information for your landlord
• The mailing address to send your rent check

Orggit is a great solution for roommates. Keep all of your important rental information stored safely online, with the knowledge that you can reach it anytime. Never again will you have trouble accessing important information if your roommate is out of town or unavailable to help.

Another Tip: If you find it difficult to take turns purchasing household items such as trash bags, paper towels and cleaning supplies, consider opening a joint checking account and each depositing an equal amount of money. If you know and trust your roommates, this is a great way to ensure that everyone is contributing to the essential items. Also, you can store banking information in Orggit’s Wallet section.
