Property Transfer to Family Members in Australia (giving the property to family members) is a popular form of supporting loved ones or dealing with family property. With the process seemingly easy, there are various significant legal and financial procedures that go along the process. You are either giving something, selling at a discount, title updating or whatever situation, you need to know all aspects of the transaction.

The first step is finding out the type of transfer that will fit your situation. It is possible to give away or sell the properties or even share them between family members. When you are giving it as a gift you normally need to sign what is known as a gift deed – it is still just a gift but legally the title is transferred. However, sales with relatives need a complete contract of sale like in the case of an ordinary property selling agency in Craigieburn. Meanwhile, you could include a family member to your titles and end up with a joint ownership in your property. Decisions have different legal and tax implications, and thus it is important to have the right approach.

It is also important to ascertain the present market value of the property even when no money is involved. This valuation is necessitated by the Australian law to compute the stamp duty and capital gain tax correctly. The tax office will tend to assume a gifted or discounted transaction was at full market value and the requirement here will be a professional valuation.

It is all about documentation. Following your transfer procedure, you may require a signed gift deed, signed contract of sale, and evidence of value added to having upgraded title. Once these are prepared, hand over to the government to get them registered. The title document will then indicate the details of the new owner. There is a rule that all taxes and fees have to be paid usually prior to the completion, such as stamp duty and capital gains. There are certain exemptions or concessions in limited cases, especially in relation to a spouse or the de facto couple.
