GRANTEES TAKING PROPERTY IN A CONCURRENT ESTATEIn the State of Texas real property can be held by more than one person (concurrent estates) in the following ways:A.If the Grantees ARE NOT married to each other, they can hold the property as:1.Tenants in Common is a type of concurrent estate in which each party owns an undivided interest in the property that will pass to their heirs when the tenant in common dies. Generally their shares are “equal” in legal rights but may differ in size.2. Joint Tenants with the Right of Survivorship is a type of concurrent estate in which co-owners have a right of survivorship, meaning that if one owner dies, that owner's interest in the property will pass to the surviving owner or owners by operation of law, and avoiding probate.B.If the Grantees ARE married to each other, they can hold the property as:1.Tenants in Common – see above.2. Joint Tenants with the Right of Survivorship – see above.3.Community Property is a type of concurrent estate where all property acquired during the marriage, other than gift or inheritance, is considered to be community property. Community property carries no automatic right of survivorship. If Husband and Wife own their home as “pure” community property, they have created 50%-50% interests, but without a right of survivorship. Each may pass on his/her share (50%) of the home to whomever they name in their will. 4.Community Property, with the Right of Survivorship, is generally the same as Community Property above but with a significant difference. Adding the “right of survivorship” means that when one spouse dies, the other spouse will own the home outright (assuming proper filing is done) and receive a "stepped-up basis" for the entire home (if it has appreciated in value) for capital gains tax purposes.C. In the attached deed, the preparer will need to indicate how the Grantees will hold the property: as Tenants in Common; Joint Tenants with the Right of Survivorship; Community Property; Community Property with the Right of Survivorship.D.For additional information on the above see the definitions at:http://lawdigest.uslegal.com/E.For example: “unto Grantees as Tenants in Common , hereinafter”F. Note: IF the Grantees elect to take the property as community property with the right of survivorship they MUST execute the Community Property Agreement contained in Exhibit B.III.
