Study Notes
Co-Ownership Unities
-
Unity of Possession: Each co-owner has equal rights to use and enjoy the entire property, not just a part of it. No single owner has exclusive use of a portion. This is different from "undivided interest," which refers to the same idea of shared use.
-
Unity of Interest: Each co-owner has an equal share or ownership in the property. This unity can exist alongside the unity of possession.
-
Unity of Time: Co-owners must acquire their ownership rights simultaneously. This means no new owners can be added later without a new agreement.
-
Unity of Title: Co-owners must acquire their property from a single transaction and hold title through the same document (e.g., deed, will). This unity aligns with unity of time.
