What is difference between co-owner and joint owner?
In both cases, co-owners can sell their shares to other people. Only in the case of death, does there arise a difference. If one owner dies in a joint-ownership situation, the share of that deceased owner automatically passes to the other co-owners. 14-Sept-2022
What are the legal rights of son in the property of his father?
Sons do not have a right to a property they acquired themselves, but if they can prove their contribution towards the acquisition of the property, then he may be entitled to a share. The son will not be able to claim a share if the father has already given the property away, either by gift or by will. 19-Feb-2023
Who is the main owner of a joint property?
Joint Tenancy
The property is divided equally among the co-owners. It also works with the concept of survivorship, which means that if a co-owner passes away, his rights are automatically transferred to the tenant who survives.
Can father and son buy a property together?
Who are co-owners of a property? The law does not specify who can be co-owners of a property. Anyone can own a property, including spouses, parents, siblings, children and even children of the same parent.
After your father's death you will remain the owner of 50% of the house, whereas his remaining 50% will be shared among all the legal heirs equally including you. In the case consideration has been paid completely by him, the rest of the legal heirs can claim equal share on various as well. It depends on the facts and kind of lawyers you and rest of legal heirs approach.

It is best to keep the property in the name of your parents if you are pooling funds. You should buy property in your own name if youre buying with money from your own fund. It is recommended that all class I heirs should pool their ownership if there is a fund pooling. Each case is different.
