This Warranty Deed from Individual to Individuals as Joint Tenants is a legal document that facilitates the transfer of property ownership from one person (the grantor) to two or more individuals who hold the title together with rights of survivorship (the grantees). This type of deed specifically outlines joint tenancy, distinguishing it from tenants in common, where ownership interests can vary and do not automatically pass to the surviving owners upon death.
