Video Summary
How does right of survivorship work when property is titled in the name of two or more people as joint tenants with right of survivorship, the surviving owners of the property, own the property. By way of example, if the property is taken the name of three people as joint tenants with right of survivorship, and one of them passes away all but needs to be done is to have the death certificate of the decedent recorded in the public records, where the deeds are recorded, showing that he’s deceased. And that will show reflect that the title is now vested and the remaining two persons who own it, if one of them subsequently passes away, or if there’s only two people that own property as joint tenants with right of survivorship and that, and the person passes away and their death certificate to recorded the property, the title to the property vest and the last remaining joint tenant, who had the right of survivorship and all that needs to be done is to have the death certificates of the joint tenants or owners be recorded in the public record.
