DESIGNATING HOW THE GRANTEES WILL HOLD THE PROPERTY:A. In the State of Texas, real property can be held by more than one person (concurrent estates) in the following ways:1. If the Grantees ARE NOT married to each other, they can hold the property as:a. Tenants in Common: 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” but may differ in size. b. Joint Tenants with the Right of Survivorship (JTWROS): 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.2. If the Grantees ARE married to each other, they can hold the property as:a. Tenants in Common – See aboveb. Joint Tenants with the Right of Survivorship – See abovec.
