First Apartment With Roommates: Complete Checklist

Before move-in: sign the lease, set up utilities, agree on rent splits, create a roommate agreement, and download HomeCo.

Week one: do a walkthrough, document existing damage, set up WiFi, stock shared supplies (cleaning products, toilet paper), and create your first chore schedule in HomeCo.

Week two: set up all shared subscriptions (streaming, groceries), link bank accounts for bill splitting, and schedule your first house meeting.

Ongoing: check HomeCo weekly for chore completion, bill reminders, and shared list updates. Stay proactive, stay friendly.
