What it does not do
Ownership disputes, unsafe shared occupancy or attempts to bind a landlord or lender. Claim Done prepares self-service documents from the facts and arrangements supplied; it does not represent either person or decide the outcome for them.
The process
From separate positions to agreed wording
Record the exact facts
Names, dates, values, responsibilities and arrangements come from the people involved. Missing facts are not invented.
Review and finalise
Invite the other person, agree each topic, then confirm the complete wording.
Included collaboration dashboard
Both people see the same topics—but keep separate control.
The buyer sends a secure email invitation. Each person records their own position. Either can propose exact joint wording. A topic turns green only after both accept it, and final confirmation is separate again.
The invitation does not expose the buyer’s account, payment information or private documents.

Does it work in my state?
Yes. The Household, Bills & Occupancy Agreement is drafted to the law of the state or territory the matter is in — NSW, Victoria, Queensland, WA, SA, Tasmania, the ACT and the NT — citing the right Act, regulator and tribunal or court for that state.
Does this change ownership of the home or the lease?
No. It records the practical arrangement between the two people. It does not itself change title, the mortgage, the lease or the rights of a lender or landlord.
Can we use it while separated under one roof?
Yes, if both people can agree freely. It can record separate spaces, bills, access and privacy, but it is different from affidavit evidence required for a divorce application.
