Common use of Tenants in Common Clause in Contracts

Tenants in Common. Each owner obtains a certain undivided percentage interest in the property (the interests may be split in equal or unequal portions, for example: two owners may have a 50/50% split, or 60/40%, or 90/10%, etc.). Unlike a joint tenancy, tenants in common do not have reciprocal rights of survivorship. If a tenant in common dies, his or her interest will pass according to the terms of his or her Last Will and Testament, or under the laws of intestate succession if he/she dies without a Will. Unless otherwise set forth, a tenancy in common is presumed to create equal undivided interests. Purchasers may indicate a different breakdown as follows: Buyer #1 %; Buyer #2 %; Buyer #3 %; Buyer #4 %.
