FAQ

Joint Tenancy Definition Common Use: This form of ownership is popular among married couples or family members, as it ensures that the property passes to the surviving owner(s) without the need for probate. Legal Implications: In Joint Tenancy, each owner has an undivided interest in the entire property.

For instance, if you're married, the most common way to title your home is Tenancy by the Entirety (TBE).

In Florida, all types of property may be owned by a married couple as tenants by the entirety. Florida residents who maintain property or accounts in states other than Florida are subject to exemption laws of the state where the property is located.

Real estate titled in the sole name of the decedent, or the decedent's name and another person as tenants in common, is a probate asset (unless it is homestead property). Real estate titled in the name of the decedent and one or more other persons as joint tenants with rights of survivorship is not a probate asset.

5 different types of title vesting Joint tenancy with right of survivorship (JTWROS) This is often a common vesting for married couples, but it also applies to family members planning to own a property together. Community property with right of survivorship. Tenancy in common. Sole ownership. Living trust.

Tenants in common gives you more protections and you can specify in a deed of trust what you would want to happen in the event of relationship breakdown (eg if one of you has first dibs to buy the other out, or a time limit on doing so etc) which is definitely better to decide now whilst you still like each other!

Typically, when married couples are listed under the real estate title as “husband and wife” a tenancy by the entireties is presumed. At the death of one spouse, the real estate interest passes automatically to the surviving spouse by operation of law similarly to the joint tenancy with right of survivorship.

The most common types include joint tenancy, tenancy in common, tenants by entirety, sole ownership, and community property.
