If a home is owned in Joint tenancy with right of survivorship - and one spouse dies – (Title not changed)PRIOR TO THE BENEFICIARY DEED BEING EXECUTED, Under AZ law it appears the the surviving spouse can execute a Beneficiary Deed with the property still recorded as JTWROS. How would the beginning verbiage be? In the law (ARS 33-405) it has an example format as shown below:
-------------------------------------------------------
I (we) _________________________ (owner) hereby convey to ___________________________ (grantee beneficiary) effective on my (our) death the following described real property:
(Legal description)
-----------------------------------------------------------
How do I reword this to insure it is clear the property is jointly held, yet, one spouse is deceased and the other is executing it on his own?
