Understanding Joint Tenancy Deeds
Summary
Joint tenancy allows property to pass directly to the surviving owner, avoiding probate. If your parents held the property as joint tenants, your fathers share would have passed to your mother upon his death. However, probate might still be necessary if there are errors in the deed, liens, or other assets not included in the joint tenancy or trust. Consulting a probate attorney can provide clarity on whether probate is required for your fathers share.Full Conversation
