THE DEED WAS RECORDED AS A MARRIED MAN AND HIS FATHER TALKED HIM INTO PUTTING HIM ON A JOINT TENANT WITH RIGHTS TO SURVIVORSHIP . MY HUSBAND MADE THE COMMENT TO ME AS LONG HE AND HIS DAD WAS ALIVE NOBODY COULD MESS WITH THE PROPERTY. THEY BOTH SOUND GREEDY TO ME. THIS JUST DON'T MAKE ANY SENCE TO ME I AM THIS MANS WIFE IT SOUNDS LIKE HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE IF SOMETHING WAS TO HAPPEN DEATH OR DIVORCE I WOULD NOT BE ENTITLED TO A THING. WOULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS?
As you probably know, with JTWROS your husband's interest automatically passes to his father. However, if the property was purchased during the marriage you can challenge this automatic transfer in probate because the purchase property is a marital asset. However, if this property was purchased before the marriage, then you would be without recourse.
