@Germaine En fait, il 'agit du Maroc... Mais merci bcp en tout cas pour la réference, c'est intéressante.
Germaine Nov 18, 2015:
Richard, Est-ce qu'il s'agit bien d'une propriété située en France? Le cas échéant, ces choses relèvent du Code civil, art. 815 et suiv. Une traduction en anglais est disponible en ligne:

Il semble que à titre indivis = in indivision et à titre divis = in division/in partition/in divided enjoyment
Daryo Nov 18, 2015:
but the property being in France, wouldn't it be better not to use terms specific to EN Law? There is no way the French law would call an owner a "tenant" ... owners of property in France are "owners" pure and simple, not mere "tenants" on a land owned by the Monarch ... end of digression.

@ daryo The equivalent of a tenancy-in-common vs. a joint tenancy in EN Common law & Equity. Care to enlighten us with your background in EN & FR land law & practical conveyancing experience?
Daryo Nov 18, 2015:
What have you got so far?

French term (edited): en copropriété à titre divis/à titre indivis

divided / undivided co-ownership

à titre divis, la fraction divise no* consistant en un bureau en copropriété situe a l\'entresol, d\'une superficie de *** mètres carres.

à titre indivis, 23/1.000emes des parties communes indivises de l\'immeuble
=
in divided co-ownership, ..... [part for the exclusive use of the co-owner]

in undivided co-ownership .... [communal parts in joint use]



The 2009 version of the Québec Civil Code sets out co-ownership as a special form of property rights, §1010, §1015 and §1016:

"Co-ownership is ownership of the same property, jointly and at the same time, by several persons each of whom is privately vested with a share of the right of ownership.

Co-ownership is called undivided where the right of ownership is not accompanied with a physical division of the property.

It is called divided where the right of ownership is apportioned among the co-owners in fractions, each comprising a physically divided private portion and a share of the common portions.

"Each undivided co-owner has the rights and obligations of an exclusive owner as regards his share. Thus, each may alienate or hypothecate his share and his creditors may seize it.

"Each undivided co-owner may make use of the undivided property provided he does not affect its destination or the rights of the other co-owners."
