Tenants in Common v Joint Tenants (EP 94)


Listen Later

In this podcast, Dannielle Young delves into the critical differences and implications of two forms of property ownership: Tenants in Common and Joint Tenants, especially in the context of Family Law Separations.



Key Differences and ImplicationsTenants in Common:
  • Ownership Shares: Allows for separate shares in property.
  • Separate Interest: Each owner has an individual interest in the property.
  • Survivorship: Does not have rights of survivorship; ownership can be passed through a will.


Joint Tenants:
  • Equal Ownership: All owners hold an equal share.
  • Right of Survivorship: On the death of one owner, their share automatically passes to the remaining owners.



Dannielle Young also addresses the practical implications to consider both at the time of purchase and following a separation.



Practical Considerations
  1. Distribution of Property: How assets are divided in separation.
  2. Asset Purchase: Factors to consider when acquiring property.
  3. Estate Planning: Implications for inheritance and wills.
  4. Changing Tenancy: How to switch between these ownership types.


By the end of the podcast, listeners will gain a comprehensive understanding of these ownership structures and their significant impact on property distribution during a Family Law separation.
