Gift your property to family
Gifting a property, or a share of it, to a child or relative changes the legal owner without a sale. We handle the title paperwork; tax planning should be checked with an adviser.
We check every application before it’s submitted, so it isn’t rejected.
Who is this for?
- Parents gifting a home to children
- Gifting a share of a property to a relative
- Passing on a property during your lifetime

Things to consider
Gifts can have Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax consequences — take independent tax advice first.
A mortgaged property cannot normally be gifted without lender consent.
We prepare paperwork only and do not give tax or legal advice.
Common questions
Is there stamp duty on a gifted property?
Usually not when no money changes hands and no mortgage is taken on, but check your circumstances.
Can I keep living in a home I’ve gifted?
You can, but it may affect Inheritance Tax. Speak to a tax adviser before gifting.
