What’s a TIC? TIC stands for tenant-in-common. Tenant-in-common is a way for multiple owners to own real estate. Each tenant-in-common owns an undivided interest in the real estate that all the tenants-in-common own together. If two people own and no percentages are shown in the deed, they are presumed to be 50/50 owners. 50/50 or other percentages can be specifically stated in the deed by which the tenants-in-common take title. This form of ownership of real estate is nothing new, in fact it is ancient.

I love it when, in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes, the character Evelyn Couch, played by a fiercely determined Kathy Bates, takes a large hammer in hand and wildly starts demolition on her own living room wall.
