What Are Property Transfers?
Property transfers often occur when there is a change in ownership percentage, typically within families. This process becomes necessary in various situations, such as family court orders following a separation or when a parent who co-owns a property with their children wishes to change their ownership status.
Understanding Transfer Duty
In most cases, property transfers may be subject to transfer duty, and it’s crucial to be aware of your obligations when adding or removing individuals from a property title. While transfer duty is a common consideration, some exemptions apply, especially in situations involving the breakdown of a relationship.
