tenancy in common
A way two or more people can own property together. Each can leave his or her interest upon death to beneficiaries of his choosing instead of to the other owners, as is required with joint tenancy. In some states, two people are presumed to own property as tenants in common unless they've agreed otherwise in writing.

My boyfriend owns the house -- how do I make clear that I own the furniture?
My boyfriend is buying a home in his name only. How do I protect myself when his name is the only one on the contract, but everything in the home is mine -- even though he won't sign anything saying so? I already have my driver's license number written on all my property. But I'm worried about what might happen if we separate, and I have no proof that I own the property in the home. Could he get it all?
