Description
The Joint Tenancy Agreement by Unmarried Individuals is a legal document that establishes joint ownership of property between two unmarried individuals, specifically in the context of joint tenancy with right of survivorship. This arrangement allows both parties to own an undivided one-half interest in the property, ensuring that if one owner passes away, their share automatically transfers to the surviving owner. Key features of this agreement include details on shared expenses, such as mortgage payments and utilities, and provisions for establishing a joint checking account to manage these costs. Additionally, it includes clauses on selling or transferring interests in the property and sets out a framework for valuing the property over time. The form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who need to draft or review joint tenancy agreements, ensuring clarity and compliance with relevant laws. Filling out and editing this form requires attention to detail, particularly in specifying the property description and outlining responsibilities, making it accessible even for those with minimal legal experience. Use cases for this form include partnerships entering into property agreements, co-ownership arrangements, and ensuring legal protections for surviving owners in the event of an untimely death.
