What is joint-tenancy?
A joint-tenancy is a form of property ownership where all co-owners have an equal interest in the property, regardless of the individual owner's contribution to the property purchase.
This means that upon the death of a joint-tenant, his interest in the property will automatically pass on to the remaining co-owner(s), regardless of whether he has made a will.
