When Property Ownership Changes —
You Need It Done Right
Transferring property ownership isn’t just paperwork.
It often happens during significant life events — marriage, separation, estate administration, family restructuring, business changes or asset protection planning.
Each scenario carries legal, financial and tax implications under NSW property law.
Whether you’re:
Transferring property to a spouse
Removing someone from title after separation
Managing a deceased estate
Updating ownership structures
Correcting a name on title
Stamping a Trust Deed with Revenue NSW
Our experienced team ensures the transfer is legally compliant, correctly lodged, and processed without unnecessary delays.
Why This Matters
Mistakes in property transfers can be costly — and difficult to fix later.
Our Property Transfer
Services
We handle a comprehensive range of property ownership changes across NSW.
Each transfer type has different legal requirements, documentation and duty considerations. We ensure everything is prepared correctly and lodged with the appropriate authorities.
Property Transfers (Without a Sale Contract)
Not all property transfers involve a sale or purchase.
We assist with direct ownership transfers where there is:
- No contract of sale
- No agent involvement
- Private family arrangements
- Asset restructuring
Family Law Transfers
Where property is being transferred pursuant to:
- Court Orders
- Binding Financial Agreements
Family Property Transfers
Transferring property to a:
- Spouse
- Child
- Grandchild
- Parent
- Other family member
This may occur with or without a financial transaction.
We advise on:
- Transfer duty implications
- Exemptions and concessions
- Required supporting documents
- Legal structure considerations
Adding or Removing Someone as an Owner
Common situations include:
- Adding a spouse after marriage
- Removing a former partner after separation
- Adding a child for estate planning purposes
- Transferring ownership to or from a business partner
Whether there is payment involved or not, ownership changes must be structured correctly to ensure:
- Accurate title registration
- Proper duty assessment
- Compliance with NSW regulations
Changing Co-Ownership Arrangements
Property in NSW can be held as:
- Joint Tenants
- Tenants in Common
We assist with converting ownership structure where required, including:
- Joint tenants to tenants in common
- Tenants in common to joint tenants
This is often done for estate planning, asset protection or family structuring reasons.
Notice of Death (Joint Tenant)
When a joint tenant passes away, ownership typically transfers automatically to the surviving joint tenant/s.
Transmission Applications (Deceased Estates)
Where a property owner passes away and the property is not held as joint tenants, a Transmission Application is required.
We manage transfers in accordance with:
- Probate
- Letters of Administration
Name Changes on Title
We assist with correcting or updating names on title, including:
- Correction of name errors
- Name changes following marriage
- Name changes following divorce
- Legal change of name
Trust Deed Stamping – Revenue NSW
Where a Trust Deed is created or varied, transfer duty (formerly stamp duty) may be payable.
We manage:
- Preparation and submission of documentation
- Duty assessment with Revenue NSW
- Compliance with current NSW legislation
Why Property Transfers
Can Become Complicated
Property transfers may appear straightforward — but they often involve multiple legal, administrative and compliance requirements.

Complex calculations based on property value, relationship and circumstances.
Exemptions or Concessions
Identifying and properly claiming available duty relief.
Identity Verification Requirements
Meeting strict Land Registry identification standards.
Supporting Statutory Declarations
Properly drafted statements supporting the transfer basis.
Compliance with NSW Land Registry Services
Meeting current lodgement and documentation standards.
Estate Documentation
Probate, Letters of Administration and supporting evidence.

The Risk
An incorrectly lodged transfer can be rejected — or worse, trigger unexpected duty liabilities.
