Undivided interest means that each owner has the right to the use and possession of the entire property and one owner cannot divide the property so as to own their half, for example, as a separate portion.

An undivided interest in real property means that you have the right to the use and possession of the whole property even though you own only a proportionate interest. In practical terms your proportionate interest would come into play under certain circumstances.
If the property generates income you would be entitled to receive half of the net proceeds. If you are a half owner and the property is sold, you would receive 50% of the net proceeds. If there was a disagreement and the property was partitioned by a court order you would receive half of the net proceeds of a sale after legal expenses.


If you owned the property as a tenant in common and you died during your period of ownership your heirs or devisees would inherit a 50% undivided interest in the property. If you owned the property with another person as joint tenants the other person would automatically own the property if you died.

The 50/50 split is an example only. When property is conveyed to two people and the deed is silent as to percentage owned by each then they each own one-half. However, a deed may grant unequal shares and the parties will hold as tenants in common. For example, in a 20/80 split, both grantees would have the right to use and possession of the whole and the proceeds would be split as in the examples above by using a 20/80 formula.

Trusts and Estates: Estates and Executory Interests?

Becoming knowledgeable about estate planning can help anyone. Whether one is a client or attorney, estate planning is a complex field and getting one term wrong can be a mistake worth millions of dollars. It is incredibly important to learn all one can about the business of estate planning and apply that knowledge to one’s own situation. It is important to thoroughly understand executory interests within the field of estate planning. An executory interest is a future interest that follows a determinable estate. An executory interest is a future interest in a grantee, not the grantor. When a future interest follows a determinable estate and is in the grantor, then that is called a possibility of reverter. When estate planning, clients often want to add more than one future interest to an estate. This is not a difficult task to do, even though it may seem like it could become a complex ordeal. One usually treats this sort of situation with the same analysis that goes into creating ordinary estates. It is very beneficial to understand the difference between shifting executory interests and springing executory interests. To start with definitions, shifting executory interests are defined as interests that follow an estate in a grantee. Springing executory interests divest an estate in the grantor. An example of a shifting executory interest can be found in the following language: A to B, provided that if B ever allows (xyz to occur), then to C. In this example, we can see many things going on. First, B has a possessory estate in fee simple. Recall that a fee simple is a type of possessory estate that has no inherent ending and is the largest type of possessory estate. Next, it can be seen that B’s fee simple is subject to an executory limitation. Because B’s fee simple is subject to an executory limitation, C’s future interest is an executory interest. Since the interest would divest B as a grantee, then it is a shifting executory interest. Now it is important to consider a springing executory interest. A springing executory interest always divests the grantor, not the grantee. An example of a springing executory interest can be found in the following language: A to B when he turns 21. In this case, A has a possessory estate in fee simple. The executory interest can be found in B. Overall, these concepts are important to know for creating precise estate plans with executory interests.
