Tenancy by the entirety

Oklahoma recognizes tenancy by the entirety (Okla. Stat. tit. 60, §74: a tenancy by the entirety can only be created between husband and wife; spouses may elect TBE or joint tenancy when joint interests are conveyed to them. Available for both real and personal property.). It's a form of co-ownership available only to married couples that provides automatic survivorship and creditor protection from individual debts. When you transfer such property into a revocable trust, you may lose the tenancy-by-entirety protection unless your trust is drafted to preserve it.

Funding Oklahoma real estate into the trust

To transfer Oklahoma real estate into your trust, you sign a new deed conveying the property from yourself to yourself as trustee, then record the deed with the County Clerk of the county where any deeded Trust property lies for the county where the property is located. The trust does not control real estate unless the deed transfer is recorded.
