Tenancy in common

A form of ownership where title is held by two or more persons with each owning a fractional interest in the undivided property. Upon the death of one tenant in common, the interest will not pass to the surviving tenant in common but will become part of the deceased tenant's probate estate and will be distributed according to such tenant's will.
