Tenancy in Common/E-Notary/Small Claims Changes.

This bill codifies North Carolina's laws regarding tenancy in common, which allows multiple people to own a property separately without the right of survivorship. It clarifies how such ownership is created, defines specific terms like "actual ouster," and sets rules for how married couples holding property as tenants in common are treated. The legislation also includes changes to notary public laws, prohibits local governments from banning landlords from refusing tenants based on federal housing assistance income, and adjusts procedures for small claims court and eviction cases.
