Can unmarried couples claim their house together?

Yes, unmarried couples can jointly claim ownership of a house by holding the title in both names, typically through forms of co-ownership such as joint tenancy or tenancy in common. This allows both partners to have legal rights to the property. It's important for couples to clearly outline their ownership arrangement and responsibilities, often through a cohabitation agreement, to avoid potential disputes in the future. Legal advice is recommended to ensure their interests are protected.
