FAQ
Joint Tenants (Real and Personal Property) If the phrase "Full Rights To Survivor" appears on account documents or vehicle title, the ownership right becomes a survivorship right when one of the joint tenants dies. This means the surviving joint tenant takes full ownership.
Understanding Partition Lawsuits in Michigan: A partition lawsuit is a legal action used to resolve disputes between co-owners of real property. It seeks a court-ordered division or sale of the property to ensure each co-owner receives their fair share.
As joint tenants, two or more people share ownership of the property, each with an undivided equal interest. Unlike tenants in common, there is a right of survivorship for the other co-owners upon the death of another. This allows the property to be transferred outside of probate upon the death of a co-owner.
In Michigan, spouses have the option of owning property by the entirety, which functions like a joint tenancy in that the surviving spouse will immediately take ownership of the property on the death of the other spouse. Michigan recognizes joint tenancy with right of survivorship as a common form of joint ownership.
In short, to force the sale of jointly owned property, you must first confirm title, then attempt a voluntary sale or buyout, file and serve a partition lawsuit, get an appraisal, sell the property, and finally divide the sale proceeds fairly.
Sure; so for clarity, whether the property is co-owned or not, so long as YOU are on the deed, a lien is possible.
No owner can sell or transfer their interest in the property without the consent of the other joint tenants.
Joint Tenancy Michigan recognizes both Joint Tenancy and Joint Tenancy with Rights of Survivorship as distinct types of property ownership. In a joint tenancy, two or more individuals own the property together, and each owner has an equal share in the entire property.
Joint Tenants with Full Rights of Survivorship is a form of co-ownership where each owner has an equal share in the property, and if one owner passes away, their share automatically transfers to the surviving joint tenant(s). This arrangement is common among married couples and family members.
