we are getting a divorce in CA and would like to keep the house as is- in both of our names. The loan is also in both names and will keep it as is.

Our grant deed shows husband and wife as joint tenatns.
do we need to change this to individuals with rigth to survivorship? If so, how can this be done?

We also would like to make sure even after the divorce if anything happnes to one of us, the other gets the full control of the house.

Hi Guest,

You and your husband will have to sign a new property deed in order to have the survivorship rights in the property. You can contact your real estate attorney and he'll help you in drafting the property deed with joint tenancy with right to survivorship. Once you fill out the deed, you should notarize and record the deed.

Thanks
