transfer of equity Solicitors
A transfer of equity occurs when an existing property owner changes or “transfers” the proportions of ownership in a property—often adding or removing someone’s name from the title. Common reasons include divorce settlements, tax planning, or adding a partner to your home’s ownership. Proper legal documentation ensures the process is valid and avoids future disputes.

What does a transfer of equity involve?
- Adjusting ownership shares: Changing the proportions each owner holds—such as 50:50 or another agreed ratio.
- Updating the mortgage: If there’s an existing mortgage, the lender must consent to the new arrangement and update the loan documents.
- Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT): Potentially due if money changes hands or if the transfer affects an existing mortgage above SDLT thresholds.
- Drafting legal documents: Preparing and signing the Transfer Deed (TR1 form), which is then submitted to HM Land Registry.
- Considering tax implications: Transfers can have capital gains or inheritance tax consequences, especially if the property is not your main residence.
How can a solicitor help with a transfer of equity, and what does it cost?
A conveyancing solicitor can:
- Advise on the process: Explaining the legal steps, any lender requirements, and potential tax liabilities.
- Draft and review paperwork: Ensuring the TR1 form and supporting documents accurately reflect the new ownership arrangement.
- Liaise with mortgage lenders: Obtaining consent for the transfer and managing any new or updated mortgage offers.
- Handle registration: Submitting the signed documents to HM Land Registry so the new ownership details are formally recorded.
Costs typically include solicitor’s fees and disbursements, such as Land Registry charges. Many firms offer fixed-fee packages for transfers of equity—often starting from £350 to £800 plus VAT and any necessary searches. If a mortgage is involved or tax considerations are more complex, fees may be higher. An initial consultation—often free or discounted—will help clarify your circumstances, likely expenses, and timescales.
