Description
The Agreement by Unmarried Individuals to Purchase and Hold Residence as Joint Tenants outlines the framework for two unmarried individuals in Chicago to acquire property as joint tenants with right of survivorship. This legal arrangement allows both parties to hold equal, undivided interests in the property and ensures that, upon the death of one tenant, the surviving tenant automatically receives full ownership. Key features of this form include the establishment of shared financial responsibilities for property-related expenses, the creation of a joint checking account for managing payments, and specific procedures for selling or transferring interests in the property. Users are instructed to execute a deed to formalize the joint tenancy and to agree on property valuations annually. This document is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants in facilitating property ownership arrangements that safeguard the rights and interests of both parties. It provides clear guidelines for responsibilities, financial arrangements, and the handling of potential disputes, thereby ensuring a cohesive and legally binding agreement.
