FAQ

The distinction is that with properties held as joint tenants, both parties own the “whole” of the property.

The difference between a joint tenancy and tenancy in common is significant. Under a joint tenancy with rights to survivorship, upon the death of the first owner, it automatically passes to the surviving owner. In a tenancy in common situation, you each own 50% of the property.

As joint tenants (sometimes called 'beneficial joint tenants'): you have equal rights to the whole property. the property automatically goes to the other owners if you die. you cannot pass on your ownership of the property in your will.

If you signed a tenancy agreement with another person (your names are on the same document) then it will be classed as a joint tenancy. They are common amongst students and families as everyone is likely move in and leave at the same time.

A joint tenancy is one method of owning real estate in Illinois that gives multiple owners equal shares in the property. The key feature of a joint tenancy is that each owner (called a joint tenant) has a right of survivorship.

Historically, the common law required that in order for a joint tenancy to be created, the co-owners must share the “four unities” of (1) time – the property interest must be acquired by both tenants at the same time; (2) title - both tenants must have the same title to the property in the deed; (3) interest - both ...

In the context of joint tenancy, typically four unities are required for its valid creation: Unity of Possession, Unity of Interest, Unity of Time, and Unity of Title, collectively referred to as the 'four unities' in property law. However, one example of a 'unity' that is not required is the Unity of Marriage.
