FAQ
An Affidavit of Survivorship is a sworn statement signed by the surviving owner to verify that the co-owner of the property has passed, and that the property has passed to the surviving owner.
Texas law does not include a presumption of survivorship. In order for survivorship rights to apply to jointly-owned property, the owners must execute a written agreement covering survivorship rights. This must be filed with the county.
Unlike most states Texas does not automatically recognize joint tenancies as having a right of survivorship. Instead the parties must agree, in writing, to include a right of survivorship.
Joint Tenancy with Right of Survivorship (JTWROS)
An agreement confers a right of survivorship if the agreement states that on the death of one party to a joint account, all sums in the account on the date of the death vest in and belong to the surviving party as his or her separate property and estate.
During the owner's life he or she can designate a co-owner as joint with right of survivorship. This is done by using Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) Form #VTR-122. If that hasn't been done prior to the owner's death, there is a DMV form called Affidavit of Heirship that can be used to transfer the title.
North Carolina recognizes joint tenancy with right of survivorship as a common form of joint ownership for non-spouses.
Joint tenancy is a relatively common type of property ownership. It has a lot of potential advantages. Indeed, most married couples who own a home in Union County, North Carolina own their property with a joint tenancy with a right of survivorship.
In North Carolina the Division of Motor Vehicles allows you to include the initials JTWROS (Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship) on your title following the names of both owners. This clarifies that ownership transfers 100% to the surviving partner on a joint title, avoiding a long process with probate.
