Does New York allow joint tenancy?

In New York, there are three ways to hold property with a co-owner: tenancy by the entirety, joint tenancy, and tenants in common.

Can there be 3 joint tenants?

As with the tenancy-in-common, a joint tenancy can exist in three or more people. Obviously, each party must have an interest that is equal to one divided by the total number of joint tenants. If one of the joint tenants dies, the others share his or her interest and they remain joint tenants with each other.

Can a person move into my jointly owned home without my permission?

Legally, yes, he can do so, unless theres a court order that prevents him (usually temporary orders during the pendancy of divorce, etc). Otherwise, a home is owned by both of you, and you BOTH have the right to allow others to move into the property, even without the others consent.

Are husband and wife automatically joint tenants in New York?

In New York, whenever more than one person buys or inherits property together, it is automatically held as tenants in common, unless they are husband and wife. If a tenant in common dies, the deceased persons interest passes to their heirs or to the person specified in the terms of the deceased persons will.

Which is best joint ownership or tenants in common?

Tenants in common gives you more protections and you can specify in a deed of trust what you would want to happen in the event of relationship breakdown (eg if one of you has first dibs to buy the other out, or a time limit on doing so etc) which is definitely better to decide now whilst you still like each other!

What is the best tenancy for a married couple?

Joint tenancy is most common among married couples because it helps property owners avoid probate. Without joint tenancy, a spouse would have to wait for their partners Last Will to go through a legal review processwhich can take months or even years.

Is right of survivorship automatic in New York?

In New York, if two or more people acquire property together, the law automatically presumes the property is held as tenants in common. If they wish to be joint tenants with rights of survivorship, the purchasers must expressly specify that fact in the deed and in all documents related to the transaction.
