FAQ
What Is the Difference Between a Warranty Deed & a Survivorship Deed?A warranty deed is the most comprehensive and provides the most guarantees. Survivorship isn't so much a deed as a title. It's a way to co-own property where, upon the death of one owner, ownership automatically passes to the survivor.
The term joint tenancy refers to a legal arrangement in which two or more people own a property together, each with equal rights and obligations. Joint tenancies can be created by married and non-married couples, friends, relatives, and business associates.
Once signed and notarized, a Mississippi deed must be recorded. The deed must be presented to the Recorder of Deeds in the county where the property is located. The transfer takes effect when signed and accepted by the grantee. However, recording provides notice to the public that the property was transferred.
First, so long as you own the property you purchased, you are obligated to pay its property taxes. One way to get a warranty deed to the property you acquired via a foreclosure where you got a quit claim deed for it is to simply deed the property to yourself or a trust that you created as a grant (warranty) deed.
If you are a joint tenant with your partner, you both have the right to carry on living in the property. However, either of you can give notice to the landlord to end the tenancy (unless it's a fixed-term tenancy).You might be able to negotiate with the landlord so that one of you can take out a new tenancy.
Each party has a full ownership interest in the property. The property will pass instantly to the survivor upon the death of the other without probate. Conveyance by one party without the other breaks the joint tenancy. Seller warrants that he/she has good title and will warrant and defend title.
Once signed and notarized, a Mississippi deed must be recorded. The deed must be presented to the Recorder of Deeds in the county where the property is located. The transfer takes effect when signed and accepted by the grantee. However, recording provides notice to the public that the property was transferred.
The dangers of joint tenancy include the following: Danger #1: Only delays probate. When either joint tenant dies, the survivor usually a spouse or child immediately becomes the owner of the entire property. But when the survivor dies, the property still must go through probate.
Joint tenancy is ideal for spousesJoint tenancy might look like an appealing shortcut in estate planning because it contains a right of survivorship, meaning assets avoid the probate process and surviving joint tenants assume immediate control. However, joint tenancy does have substantial risk associated with it.
