Property ownership can be held as joint tenants or tenants in common. Joint tenants have equal shares, with automatic transfer to survivors upon death. Tenants in common allows for distinct, potentially unequal shares, with inheritance determined by wills or intestacy rules. This choice significantly impacts ownership rights and inheritance.
