What is Joint Tenancy?
Joint tenancy is a term used to describe the ownership of two or more parties of a property. This is also referred to as joint tenancy with the rights of survivorship. Owning property as a joint tenancy will allow each joint tenant the same rights, which can include:
1. Right of joint tenant to use property
The right of the joint tenant to use the property, including with land, the right to occupy the entire property, with bank account money or stocks and the right to spend the entire amount.
2. Joint tenant can transfer ownership of property
The right to make a transfer of the interest that is in the property without having to receive permission from other co-owners.
3. Right of Survivorship in joint tenancy
A survival right, for example, when a tenant dies. This means that the share of the tenant that has passed will automatically become an asset of the other co-owners. Basically, this states that a joint tenant cannot transfer the interest at death.
