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.
– Quitclaim Deed: This deed transfers the grantor's interest in the property without any warranties or guarantees. It is often used for transfers between family members where the grantor may not want to warrant the current status of title.
Perhaps the most common way for unmarried couples to take title to real property is as "tenants in common." Unlike a joint tenancy, a tenant in common has no automatic right to inherit the property when the other partner dies.
Generally, the court will divide all property acquired during the marriage (marital property). Courts recognize that both spouses contribute to marital property. Income is only one factor that courts consider.
Tenancy by the Entirety (TBE) Some depend on what your marital status is. For instance, if you're married, the most common way to title your home is Tenancy by the Entirety (TBE). That endows survivorship rights, some creditor protection, and allows for transfers only with the consent of both spouses.

Tenancy by the entirety refers to a form of shared property ownership that is usually reserved only for married couples. A tenancy by the entirety permits spouses to jointly own property as a single legal entity. This means that each spouse has an equal and undivided interest in the property.
“Joint tenancy” describes a manner of holding title to (owning) real property such as a house or land in which multiple owners share ownership during their lifetimes, with the last surviving owner taking full ownership of the property when the other owner(s) have died.
Joint tenancy is most common among married couples because it helps property owners avoid probate. Without joint tenancy, a spouse would have to wait for their partner's Last Will to go through a legal review process—which can take months or even years.
A conveyance made by an owner of an estate for life or years, purporting to convey a greater estate than the owner could lawfully transfer, does not work a forfeiture of the estate, but passes to the grantee all the estate which the grantor could lawfully transfer.
