If two people are on a home deed and one passes away what happens to that person's interest in the home?

The answer depends on the deed by which the two acquired their interest in the property. If the property was acquired as tenants by the entirety or as joint tenants with the right of survivorship, the survivor automatically owns the property. If the property was acquired as tenants in common, the interest of the decedent will pass to her heirs at law under the laws of intestacy and her estate must be probated providing she didn't name a beneficiary by will. If there was a will and a named beneficiary the estate must be probated for title to pass to the beneficiary.
