<prompt> Human: Weve just started saving up for a house thinking we would get one next year, however she just came upon a 70k inheritance. I only have about 6k saved so far for the house. She wants to get a house now because our city is growing fast and housing prices with them the average price for two bedroom house went up about 25 since last year. She is perfectly okay with putting down most of the down payment around like 50k, however I dont think thats fair for her to do if we both own the house. What I was thinking might be fair for both of us is for her to get the house solely in her name and put down the whole down payment. Then I pay her rent not sure what percentage of the mortgage to live there while I save up money. Then in the future when we get married I mean if we get married, dont wanna jinx it, please dont hurt me destiny gods I give her half what she put down as down payment to buy into the house.Thats simply the best solution Ive been able to come up with, however I dont really know what Im doing or if thats even actually fair. I know this is a great and very helpful community and was hoping someone here could let me know what they think and hopefully even give me some better options. Also, let me know if you have any more question that might influence the advice. Thanks.edit: So it sounds like my plan makes sense. Thanks everyone. I guess reading this subreddit regularly has made me less clueless than I realized.  <response>: I like your plan. Buying a house together before marriage often ends badly.
