Question

In real estate or law, what does t/e stand for?

Answer 1

tenants by the entirety.  It is a form of ownership that is available to married couples only.  It means that each party (of the married couple) own 100% of the property and that each party cannot give away or sell their half.  When one dies their half goes to the other party.

Answer 3

I don't know. But I know what c/o means. company of! Yeah that doesn't help, now does it? :| hehehehe...

Answer 4

There is no abbreviation t/e that i know of so i wonder if you should have given us a sentence to make it clearer.  Real estate uses lots of abbreviations.  t/o mean "thruout" when describing carpet in the house. I'm pretty sure there is no legalism that is shortened to t/e and i think i know them all.

Answer 5

Tenancy by Entirety ???

Are you married? ;)These forms of tenancy deal with ownership of property by married couples.
