In Florida, a joint tenancy can be terminated in several ways, including through the sale of the property, divorce, death of a joint tenant, or mutual agreement between the tenants.

There are four different ways to hold title in real property in Florida: (1) tenants in common; (2) joint tenancy; (3) joint tenants with right of survivorship; and (4) tenancy by the entireties.

5 The deceased owner's heirs cannot inherit their property once a JTWROS is established. This means that the last living owner of the property owns all of the assets.

(5) Property held jointly will support multiple claims for homestead tax exemption; however, only one exemption will be allowed each residential unit and no family unit will be entitled to more than one exemption.

Section 12D-7.012 - Homestead Exemptions - Joint Ownership (1) No residential unit shall be entitled to more than one homestead tax exemption. When property is held as joint tenants with right of survivorship, an owner's interest in the property passes to the surviving tenants upon the owner's death.The spouse who holds the title of the property is responsible for applying for homestead exemption. In Florida, JTWROS means that the full title to property goes to the owner that survives. Mailing Address Change.
