Moving in with new partner

[talllady29]

I need some advise on making things work financially please. I am moving in with my partner (into the house he owns). He has three children and I have two.
His salary is 100k per year and mine is £25k per year. We both have equity which we want to protect, but how to split future equity, if he financially contributes more towards bills. For example, he paid 80% and I paid 20%. Is it best for equity to be split that way too?

You say equity. Does that mean that you own your own home? Without being married neither of you are legally entitled to anything the other person owns. His house is his. If you move in and start paying towards his mortgage you still won’t be entitled to anything when you split up, unless you see a solicitor and draw up an agreement. Marriage provides protection.
