Inheritance from joint tenancy quitclaim deed?

There is no 'inheritance' from a joint tenancy. When two people own property as joint tenants with the right of survivorship and one dies the survivor automatically owns the property. Think of it this way: When one owner dies their interest in the property disappears leaving the survivor as the sole owner.

Are Joint Tenants with a right of survivorship the same as Tenants In Common?

No they are different types of real property co-ownership. Tenancy in common is a type of co-ownership where two or more people ("tenants in common") own the property. It is the default tenancy in many jurisdictions when the tenancy is not stated in a deed with multiple grantees. Tenants in Common:Can own the property in equal or unequal sharesHave the right to the use and possession of the whole of the propertyPass on their share of the property to their heirs when they dieIn a joint tenancy the desire to create a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship must be so stated in the deed. The interest of any deceased joint tenant passes automatically to the surviving joint tenants. A joint tenancy is created only if the following four conditions, called the Four Unities, are met:Time- All the tenants acquired their interest at the same time.Title- All the tenants have the same title.Interest- All the tenants have an equal share.Possession- All tenants must have an equal right to possess the property.


In Colorado what happens to your home if you die and your spouse is an owner by a Quitclaim Deed but is not named on the General Warranty Deed?

Assuming that one party acquired the land by virtue of a warranty deed and then conveyed it to himself or herself and spouse by a quitclaim deed, that would be effective as long as the deed was drafted properly. You need to check the tenancy created in the most recent deed. If it is a joint tenancy and one owner dies the survivor owns the property automatically. Deeds should always be drafted by a professional. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly to correct if they can be corrected.


How do you sever a joint tenancy?

A joint tenancy between two people can be severed by either party executing a deed of their interest to another grantee. If they wish to retain their interest in the property but simply sever the tenancy, their grantee can immediately convey the property back and the new tenancy between the original owners will be a tenancy in common. That procedure is called a straw deed.

If it's not stated on a quitclaim deed is ownership in common?

A proper quitclaim deed will state (paraphrased) that the person, their title, address signs ownership to the other person, title and address. If the quitclaim is signing the property over to two people, then the phrase needs to match what they will have on the deed (in common, with rights of survivorship) and so on. Your title company can help with making the right choice. The signatures should be notarized. Clarification: Yes. If no tenancy is recited then the result is a tenancy in common.


If you are not married and have joint tenancy how can you get out?
