Joint Owner's Debts Could Become Your Problem For example, if you add your adult child to the deed of your home and they have undisclosed debts, your property could be at risk of being seized to settle those debts.
If the married couple or joint owners of a property do not have a tenancy by the entireties title, any lien can attach to the person's interest in the property. Whether it's judgment or confessed judgment, the lien will attach to the homeowner's interest, making the lienor a co-owner of the property.
Joint Tenancies In Texas These means that upon the death of one owner their share of the property will pass to the surviving co-owners. A joint tenant's interest is therefore not freely devisable in a will. Unlike most states Texas does not automatically recognize joint tenancies as having a right of survivorship.

At any time before expiration of the judgment, the judgment holder may file a notice of renewal and the clerk shall enter the judgment renewed. Committee note: This Rule does not extinguish an unrenewed judgment held by the State. See Code, Courts Article, § 5-102; Comptroller of Md.
