Transfer of Equity | Survivorship Applications

The term ‘transfer of equity’ can be misleading. This is because it involves the transfer of both the legal title of the property and its beneficial (or equitable) title. A transfer of equity occurs where the ownership of a property changes, but at least one of the original owners remains on the title.

There are many reasons why people choose to undertake a transfer of equity.

Some of the more common are:

Marriage or co-habitation: when people decide to live together, they often transfer the property into their joint names and, if needed, onto whatever existing mortgage there may be over the property;
Divorce or separation: when a couple divorces or separate, property is typically transferred, sometimes with compensation or under a court order. One of the areas that distinguishes Bishop & Sewell, is that its property team works in close partnership with its family law team. Should you be in the unfortunate situation of losing your property through a divorce or dissolution of a civil partnership, our solicitors can offer expertise in property issues arising from relationship breakdown;
Buying a co-owner out: co-owners may wish to buy out another owner, or to be bought out of the property. This normally involves some form of financial consideration changing hands; and
Estate or tax planning: property owners may decide to transfer their property to their children or other family members to manage their Inheritance Tax liabilities. Bishop & Sewell’s private client team is able to advise clients regarding the best way to structure their assets and how to limit their estate’s overall tax liability.

Bridge Financing

As the name implies, bridging finance, or bridging loans, should only be used as a short term funding solution. Bridging lenders will almost certainly charge higher rates of interest than the usual high street or commercial lenders. The lender’s fees may also be significantly higher owing to the complexity of the loans and the need for them to be completed in a short time-frame.

The most common reason for taking out a bridging loan is where someone is attempting to complete on a property purchase quickly. Bridging loans can enable you to buy a new property before you have sold your existing home. A typical example is someone purchasing a property at auction, where the completion date of 28 days, or less, is required and arranging normal lending would take longer than the notice period for completion
