What language must be included if parties want to convey property as joint tenants with right of survivorship?

To convey property as joint tenants with the right of survivorship, specific language must be included in the deed. The term often used is "survivorship language," which explicitly states the intention of the parties to hold the property in such a manner that if one tenant passes away, the other automatically inherits the deceased tenant's share. This legal terminology is crucial because it clarifies the nature of the ownership and ensures that the property does not become part of the deceased tenant's estate, which would otherwise be subject to probate.

The other options do not appropriately capture the necessary legal language required for this type of ownership. While it's true that some form of language is necessary to establish joint tenancy with the right of survivorship, simply stating that no special language is needed would be misleading. Additionally, "ownership by joint tenants only" does not convey the specific right of survivorship, and "rights of passage included" is irrelevant to the matter of survivorship in joint tenancy. Hence, including explicit "survivorship language" is essential to ensure that the joint tenancy is established correctly and the intended legal consequences are achieved.
