Property Ownership
In Colorado, 'tenancy in common' means each co-owner:
AA. Has a right of survivorship automatically
BB. Owns an undivided interest in the entire property with the right to transfer their share independently✓ Correct
CC. Must have equal ownership percentages
DD. Cannot sell their interest without the other co-owners' consent
Explanation
In a tenancy in common, each co-owner holds an undivided interest in the whole property. Shares may be unequal, and each co-owner may sell, mortgage, or transfer their interest independently without the other co-owners' consent. There is no right of survivorship — each owner's share passes to their heirs.
