Best Answer

That depends on the names listed as grantees on the deed and what tenancy was recited. Ohio is not a community property state so the grantee(s) in the deed owns the property. The following tenancies are recognized in Ohio:

Ohio:Ohio recognizes the following types of ownership: tenancy in common, joint tenancy and tenancy by entirety created prior to April 4, 1985, but not community property and tenancy by entirety after April 4, 1985. A grant of ownership of real estate to two or more persons is presumed to create a tenancy in common, unless otherwise expressly stated in the conveyance. Ohio Code §5302.17-.21.

The way the property is titled determines who takes ownership. If the property is titled as Joint Tenants or Joint Tenants With Right of Survivorship, the surviving person(s) named on the deed receive the entire property and it is not subject to probate distribution. If the property is titled as Tenants-In-Common, it is subject to probate distribution as required under the laws of the state in which the property is located.

In Ohio your husband acquired some real estate in his name and then adds his kids mother to the deed do you have any rights to this property?

Ohio is not a community property state so people who are married can acquire property in their sole name. If your husband added another person's name as a joint tenant with the right of survivorship the property will automatically pass to that other person if he dies. If he is a tenant in common with the other person you would inherit his half interest if he died intestate or left his interest to you in his will. You have no immediate rights in the property.
