3 people have right of survivorship and one quitclaimed their interest to a new party Is this new co-owner responsible for that persons part of the mortgage?

What happens to property if owner died with no will?

The property passes to the person's heirs at law by the laws of intestacy. If the property was owned with another person as joint tenants with the right of survivorship or as tenants by the entirety the interest of the decedent passes automatically to the survivor and bypasses probate. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link provided below.


Can my partner in the deed add another person on or leave it to a new wife?

Since you refer to the other person as your partner on the deed I will assume you don't hold the property as tenants by the entirety. You each own a one-half interest in the property. Your partner on the deed can convey their half to a third party or convey it to themself and another person. However, their conveyance of their one-half interest will not affect your one-half interest. If you and your partner own the property as joint tenants with the right of survivorship they cannot leave their interest to another person by a will. If they die while you own it together their interest will automatically pass to you. A person can transfer an interest in joint property by deed but not by will.

If two people are on a home deed and one passes away what happens to that person's interest in the home?

The answer depends on the deed by which the two acquired their interest in the property. If the property was acquired as tenants by the entirety or as joint tenants with the right of survivorship, the survivor automatically owns the property. If the property was acquired as tenants in common, the interest of the decedent will pass to her heirs at law under the laws of intestacy and her estate must be probated providing she didn't name a beneficiary by will. If there was a will and a named beneficiary the estate must be probated for title to pass to the beneficiary.

How do you title property if not married?

If you want the property to pass to the co-owner automatically if one owner dies then you should take title as joint tenants with the right of survivorship.a) Joint Tenants, with rights of survivorship (the title automatically passes to the survivor if one dies per above). Joint tenants do have a right of survivorship, but a joint tenant may sell or give away her interest in the property. If a joint tenant sells her interest in a joint tenancy, the tenancy becomes a tenancy in common, and no tenant has a right of survivorshipb) Tenants in Common: All tenants in common hold an individual, undivided ownership interest in the property. This means that each party has the right to alienate, or transfer the ownership of, his/her ownership interest. Tenants in common do not have a right of survivorship. In a tenancy in common, persons may sell or give away their ownership interest.
