Transfer of Equity
The Private Property team is experienced in handling the various situations where a transfer of equity occurs. Some examples include:
Gifts - many couples decide that they would like to own a property bought in one of their names in joint names. This can be for personal reasons, or as part of inheritance tax planning.
Separation and divorce - sadly, many relationships now end in separation or divorce. Assisted by our Family team, we can give advice about the options available for dealing with the home.
Trusts - the team is experienced in handling all aspects of land that is held on trust. We work closely with the Trust and Tax team,which enables us to provide an all-around service, from creation of the trust, to its final winding up.
