Description

In equity sharing both parties benefit from the relationship. Equity sharing, also known as housing equity partnership (HEP), gives a person the opportunity to purchase a home even if he cannot afford a mortgage on the whole of the current value. Often the remaining share is held by the house builder, property owner or a housing association. Both parties receive tax benefits. Another advantage is the return on investment for the investor, while for the occupier a home becomes readily available even when funds are insufficient.

FAQ

In Washington, real property conveyed to a married person or a person in a registered domestic partnership is legally presumed to be community property. Exceptions to the rule include properties acquired as separate property by gift, bequest or by agreement (see Sole Ownership example 2 above).

In Washington, married couples and registered domestic partners can avoid probate by signing a Community Property Agreement (CPA). In the agreement, the couple agrees that when one of them dies, all of that person's property will pass directly to the other.

If you file separate returns, you and your spouse (or your registered domestic partner) each must attach your Form 8958 to your return to identify your community and separate income, deductions, credits, and other return amounts ing to the laws of your state.

To use a Washington state community property agreement, you and your spouse or partner must agree to leave everything to each other, complete the document, and sign it in front of a notary public. When one spouse or partner dies, the survivor will become the owner of the deceased person's property, without probate.

025, upon the death of a decedent, a one-half share of the community property shall be confirmed to the surviving spouse or surviving domestic partner, and the other one-half share shall be subject to testamentary disposition by the decedent, or shall descend as provided in chapter 11.04 RCW.

Community Property With Right Of Survivorship (CPWROS) Only married couples can use this form of title in community property states like California. This is a very popular method for married couples because it really protects spouses in the case of titles.

A defining feature of joint tenancy is the right of survivorship—if one owner dies, their share automatically passes to the surviving joint tenants, avoiding probate. In Washington, this can simplify the transfer of property between spouses or family members, especially for homes and real estate investments.
