The document titled Agreement by Unmarried Individuals to Purchase and Hold Residence as Joint Tenants outlines the legal arrangement for two unmarried individuals who wish to purchase and own property as joint tenants with the right of survivorship in Georgia. Joint tenancy differs from tenants in common and tenants by the entirety, as it ensures that upon the death of one tenant, their share automatically passes to the surviving tenant. Key features of the agreement include responsibilities for expenses, the establishment of a joint checking account for shared costs, restrictions on the sale or transfer of interests in the property, and the establishment of a process for valuating the property. The form provides clear filling and editing instructions, ensuring both parties agree on terms before executing the deed. Use cases are particularly relevant for attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants who may assist clients in property ownership arrangements, ensuring legal compliance and protection of interests. This agreement also serves as a practical tool for legal professionals supporting unmarried partners in managing shared property responsibly.
