Joint ownership adds far more than “double the potential trouble” when a couple (or more) people buy a property. There are so many consideration to take into account. This session will consider:
- What actually is joint ownership?
- What are the risks?
- Declarations of Trust – how can they be used to mitigate risk
- Undue influence – examples of the same and recent case law to show how it can go wrong
- Severance – how to severe a joint tenancy as well as example cases where it is questionable as to whether it was severed or not
