Concurrent Estates Definition:

Property owned by two or more persons at the same time.

Examples of concurrent estates are joint tenancy, tenancy by the entirety and tenancy in common.

Concurrent estates end when the property is severed or partitioned except for tenancies by the entirety which are, by design, particularly challenging to end, partition or sever.
