Description
The Agreement by Unmarried Individuals to Purchase and Hold Residence as Joint Tenants establishes joint tenancy ownership of a property, allowing both parties to hold equal shares with rights of survivorship. In Collin, this means if one owner passes away, their share automatically transfers to the surviving owner. The agreement outlines responsibilities for maintenance costs, including mortgage payments, taxes, and utilities, to be shared equally. Additionally, a joint checking account is mandated for these expenses, further ensuring financial cooperation. Importantly, it details a process for one party to sell their interest, requiring an offer to the other party, creating a fair method for valuation over time. This form is particularly beneficial for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who manage property agreements or advise clients on real estate matters. It provides a structured approach to handling joint property ownership, reducing potential disputes, and legal clarity regarding responsibilities and rights.
