If her name is on the lease, Claire is the one responsible, so she’s right: It’s her apartment. When I got married, my new husband moved into MY house. Yes, he paid for a lot…even renovation. But when it came time to sell, it was ME who had to sign the bill of sale. Not BOTH of us.
You both have a point: It’s Claire’s apartment in that her name is the only one on the least, and it belongs to both of you because you are both living there.
