But here&#8217;s a quick run-down:<\/p>\n<p>Around 1997, a man named Ng Cheng Hock agreed to be co-owner of a flat with Madam Tan Chor Hong, his friend&#8217;s mistress. So already, we&#8217;re off to a great start. At the time, Madam Tan was pregnant, and initially wanted to buy a flat with her mother; but sadly her mum passed away first.<\/p>\n<p>Ng&#8217;s friend then paid him $5,000, to be a co-owner with Madam Tan. Mr. Ng paid around $7,900 out of his CPF, toward the initial payment of the flat (just over three per cent of the purchase price at the time).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_27078\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27078\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-27078\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/itsatrap.jpg\" alt=\"It's a trap! meme\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-27078\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">That was bad move. Unusual arrangements in home ownership seldom work out well.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>All the mortgage repayments over the next two decades were then made by Madam Tan; probably not a negotiable issue, given that Ng subsequently went to jail for 18 years in Japan (due to drug offences).<\/p>\n<p>When Ng returned in end-2018, he was perhaps a changed man and wanted to make a clean future for himself.\u00a0 Or at least, we like to think he felt that way for at least a few minutes. Before he came back and harassed Madam Tan by &#8220;creating disturbances&#8221; at the flat and sending her death threats. This prompted her to apply for the property to be sold.<\/p>\n<p>The current value of the flat is $450,000, of which Ng wanted about $170,000 (around 43.4 per cent). But, thanks to it being tenants-in-common and not a joint tenancy, Ng is going to have to settle for just five per cent (about $20,000).<\/p>\n<p>Which is <em>still <\/em>returns of over nine per cent per annum, by the way, since he effectively only put in $2,900 (his friend paid him $5,000 remember?) Really, it&#8217;s all quite depressing &#8211; the man issues death threats and gets a return that beats the ST Index Fund.<\/p>\n<h3>But it helps that Ng <em>clearly <\/em>just owned five per cent<\/h3>\n<p>There&#8217;s a chance the same result would have happened if it were a joint tenancy &#8211; because Ng didn&#8217;t service the mortgage for the two decades or so. But the legal issues were simpler and faster to get around, because it was a tenancy-in-common.<\/p>\n<p>Under a tenancy-in-common, each owner holds a fixed percentage. This makes it easy to work out how much each party gets, when the property is sold.<\/p>\n<p>Tenancy-in-common is often used for decoupling. This is when you own 99 per cent of the flat, while a spouse owns another one per cent. Later, your spouse can transfer the one per cent to you for cheap (Buyers Stamp Duty will only apply on the one per cent); and then go off and buy another property as a first-time buyer (hence there&#8217;s no Additional Buyers Stamp Duty).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16232\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16232\" style=\"width: 801px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-16232\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/thinking-buy-home-couple.jpg\" alt=\"thinking buy home couple\" width=\"801\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/thinking-buy-home-couple.jpg 1254w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/thinking-buy-home-couple-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/thinking-buy-home-couple-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 801px) 100vw, 801px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16232\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Getting a third co-owner like a sibling? Tenancy-in-common can make later division of proceeds neater.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But as this case shows, tenancy-in-common also provides some defence against greedy co-owners. So if you&#8217;re making a joint investment in, say, a condo to rent out &#8211; this may be the preferable way to go. And if you currently have a joint tenancy, you can take steps to change it to a tenancy-in-common (talk to a lawyer).<\/p>\n<h3>But note the potential drawbacks too<\/h3>\n<p>Did Madam Tan fully come out ahead? Not really &#8211; she has been paying the entire mortgage for two decades, whereas Ng benefits from five per cent ownership, despite not servicing the loan.<\/p>\n<p>The same risk can apply to couples who split their flat, with the intent to decouple. For example, say your ownership is split 99-1; and you own one per cent, but you pay most of the mortgage. If there&#8217;s a divorce and the flat is sold, there&#8217;s a chance you&#8217;ll come out on the losing end (your lawyer can argue the case of course, but that&#8217;s still time consuming and expensive).<\/p>\n<p>So be sure to talk about the pros and cons with a legal expert, before you make a decision.<\/p>\n<p><i>Would you prefer tenancy-in-common?
