Q.What is Tenancy in the Entirety?

A.Some states have a special form of joint tenancy when the joint tenants are husband and wife -- with each owning a one-half interest in the property. This special form prohibits a spouse from selling or transferring their share of the property without the other souse's consent. Words in a deed to the effect of "A and B, husband and wife, as tenants in the entirety" establishes a Tenancy in the Entirety.
