In New York, when a married couple purchases real estate the interest that the married couple has in the property is called a tenancy by the entirety. In that form of ownership, each party is said to have an undivided interest in the whole property. It is as if the married couple is one person in the eyes of the law.
If Property is a Joint Tenancy, New York Laws Can Allow Probate Avoidance. When property is owned as a joint tenancy with rights of survivorship, this means that the co-owners are automatically going to inherit the property if any one of the owners passes away.
A JTWROS is a variant of the co-ownership that gives co-owners the right to live. It means that if one owner dies, his shareholding will be passed down to the remaining owners.
States with tenancy by the entirety are: Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, and Wyoming.
A third type of joint asset ownership in New York common enjoyed by married couples is known as tenancy by the entirety and often applied to home ownership. In fact, unless the dead to the real property specifies otherwise, home residences are automatically held in tenancy by the entirety in New York.
In New York, there are three ways to hold property with a co-owner: tenancy by the entirety, joint tenancy, and tenants in common. However, only two of these can have a right of survivorship. The others must go through probate to pass the property to another owner.
