Property Transfers

It goes without saying that using a conveyancer is important when buying or selling commercial or residential property. But what about a property or house transfer, where a property owner is simply transferring ownership of their property to another party? The short answer is yes; you can still benefit from using a conveyancer for property transfers.

We put our expertise in legal transfers conveyancing to use to ensure the process of transferring property runs smoothly and without incident.

Why People Might Transfer Ownership of a House or Other Property

There are many different reasons why a property owner might transfer ownership of a house or property rather than selling it:

• The ending of a marriage might see one party transfer a house to their spouse as part of the divorce settlement.
• Ownership of the property might be transferred to a company for taxation purposes.
• An individual property owner might request a change of property ownership as a means of minimising business risk.
• If a property is joint owned and one of the owners has passed away, necessitating a land or house title transfer.
• Transferring property to family, such as parents choosing to gift their property to their child or children.
• A property is left to an individual in a will, known as deceased estate transfer of property

The use of a legal transfers conveyancing specialist can be beneficial for a number of reasons. Though you might not be buying or selling property, a conveyancer can help you navigate through the paperwork and legal documentation, such as the transfer of land document. They can also handle any stamp duty related issues should they arise. A simple transfer of home ownership often incurs reduced conveyancing fees.
