Cohousing-L Mailing List: Tax question concerning co-op house rent

[Jay Howard (jayhoward]

Hi all. My wife and I are buying a house. We want to live in the house with
another couple. The four of us are currently in community together along
with others---not co-housing, more like an intentional neighborhood group.

That other couple will not have a lease with us, but they'll pay us monthly
some predetermined amount. (We don't know what, we haven't closed on the
house yet.) My question is, how would we handle this come tax time?
