In California, one joint tenant can unilaterally terminate or sever a joint tenancy without the consent of the other joint tenant(s). This action converts the ownership to a tenancy in common, eliminating the right of survivorship.
Additionally, joint tenancy guarantees equal rights and ownership for all parties. So if two people own the property, each controls 50%. If there were five owners, each would control 20% interest in the property.
You can put as many people as you want as grantees on a quit claim deed. However, the problem with putting all of your children on the property as 1% owners is that you would be giving each of your children a veto power if you want to sell or mortgage the condo.
If you titled the house in joint names, it would pass automatically to you and your spouse upon your mothers death. Medicaid would not attempt to recover the home to pay for care.
Lack of control: Each joint tenant has equal rights, which means one party can force a sale or take out loans against the property. Unintended tax consequences: In California, joint tenancy can lead to unfavorable property tax reassessments or lost step-up in basis benefits.

When the other than original transferor is removed from the joint tenancy, this is a reversion back to the original transferors. This reversion does not trigger a reassessment. Joint tenancy is a form of ownership where individuals co-own real property.
