Hello Tino! Sorry for the necro, but I seem to be in a very similar circumstance as you were last year. I also have a joint with my partner and we just bought a apartment. We currently use beancount_share to track our shared costs and we were wondering how to tackle tracking who pays what regarding the apartment. Say they pay 1500 out of at 2000 mortgage, we believe they should own 75% of the apartment and vice-versa. Legally that is what we have on paper, but are currently struggling how to model this. How did you tackle this problem?
