Generally, and in Florida, a tenancy by the entirety is a special joint tenancy reserved for legally married people. They own the property with the unseverable common law right of survivorship. If one dies, the other automatically owns the property.
With a general joint tenancy with the right of survivorship the tenancy can be broken by one of the parties and it will transform into a tenancy in common. The right of survivorship within a tenancy by the entirety cannot be severed by one of the parties. One may not sue the other to Partition the property. A creditor of one may not claim the property or the proceeds of sale.
In Florida, the signature of both spouses is needed to sell the property and one cannot sell their interest alone. Both are required to sign a mortgage or any other type of contract.
