συνιδιοκτήτες με αυτόματα δικαιώματα δεδουλευμένου και όχι ως χωριστοί ιδιοκτήτες
Joint 'tenants' are owners with *equal* undivided title, having an 'ideal' = notional share that, by dint of jus accrescendi, 'accrues' or passes automatically to the co-owners, like a surviving spouse (in US AmE called a tenancy by the entirety)
Contrast tenants-in-common, the latter label counter-intuitively meaning *separate* owners who can end up owning shares of 10% & 90% or 40% & 60%, respectively, in a property with a separate share that can be 'disposed of' so passed on privately = non-automatically by Will.
A ioint tenancy (co-owership) can be 'severed' AmE: by forced judicial partition, so split and fragmented e.g. on bankruptcy, divorce or unilateral notice of severance given by one owner only.
So now we know why most students fail the Anglo-American land-law exam paper.
(PS I am afraid my Greek is classical-only, pre-switch to modern languages at school.)
When you buy a property as joint tenants, it means you both own the property equally. It does not matter if one person has paid 80% of the deposit or is contributing more towards the mortgage repayments.
When you buy a property as tenants in common, it means you can own unequal proportions of the property, should you want to. You can also have up to four named legal owners.

What does this complicated-sounding legal phrase mean, exactly?
First, tenancy in this context shouldn’t be confused with the tenancy of someone who is renting an apartment. In title law, when we talk about tenants, we’re talking about people who own property.
In fact, there are a few different types of assets that can be held as JTWROS, such as a bank account, but for our purposes, we’re talking about it in terms of real estate ownership.

Joint Tenancy With Survivorship
Joint tenancy with rights of survivorship (JTWROS) is a type of account that is owned by at least two people. In this arrangement, tenants have an equal right to the account's assets. They are also afforded survivorship rights in the event of the death of another account holder.
In simple terms, it means that when one partner or spouse dies, the other receives all of the money or property. That is why many married couples and business partners choose this option. However, there are some things you should consider before entering joint tenancy. Below, we'll take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of this arrangement.
