What is the meaning of tenants in common?

Updated by MLAW
When a property is owned under tenants in common, the deceased's share does not automatically pass on to the surviving owner(s). The deceased's share is distributed according to the terms of the will. Where there is no will, the deceased's share will be distributed according to intestacy laws.
