夫妻一般都是joint tenants.

不用你提出，律师RECORD的时候一般都是这样。 老猫分析的很详细， 不过好像有点而乱。When two or more people own property as joint tenants and one owner dies, the other owners automatically own the deceased owner's share. 不过有的州例外，In some states, two people are presumed to own property as tenants in common unless they've agreed otherwise in writing。 如果你要查你家的TYPE OF OWNERSHIP, 到TOWN HALL 一问就知道了。
