Make the Right Move With Clear Property Transfer Advice

Transferring property sounds simple, but the legal and financial implications can be anything but. 

Whether you’re transferring between family, inheriting a property, or setting up asset protection, one misstep can lead to delays, unexpected stamp duty, or long-term issues with ownership and tax.

We help you avoid all that.

Our experienced property transfer lawyers work with clients across the Gold Coast and surrounds to make sure every transfer is handled properly—nothing missed, nothing left to chance.

We manage the process from start to finish, apply any exemptions you’re entitled to, and help structure your transfer so you’re protected now and in the future.

Our goal is to ensure your property is transferred correctly, efficiently, and in a way that supports your long-term interests.

Call us on ​​07 5526 0499 or book a free initial consultation to get clear, practical advice before you sign or submit anything.

Property Transfers We Can Help With

We regularly assist with transfers between spouses, parents and children, siblings, and extended family. These often raise questions around stamp duty, capital gains tax, and asset protection. We’ll help you understand your options and manage the process from start to finish.

If you’ve inherited property through a will or estate, we can help with the legal transfer of ownership. This includes transfers due to survivorship, executor duties, or distribution to beneficiaries, along with any stamp duty exemptions that may apply.

Separation & Divorce Transfers

Property transfers following a relationship breakdown are common. When supported by a Binding Financial Agreement (BFA) or Consent Orders, these transfers may qualify for stamp duty exemptions under the Family Law Act. We’ll ensure your documentation is valid and enforceable.

Transfers for Asset Protection

We help clients transfer property into trusts or other legal structures for asset protection or tax planning. This is most effective when done early, before multiple properties are acquired. If you’re already managing a portfolio, we’ll advise on the risks, costs, and implications of restructuring.

If you’re planning to buy property, we can help set things up the right way from the beginning, so you avoid unnecessary stamp duty, simplify ownership, and protect your future position.

What You Need to Know Before Transferring Property

There’s more to a property transfer than meets the eye. The way it’s structured can affect stamp duty, tax, ownership rights, and future asset protection.

We provide upfront legal advice to help you make the right decisions from the start. This includes:

  • Whether stamp duty applies and how to reduce it
  • The impact of ownership structure, trusts, SMSFs, or family agreements
  • Tax considerations such as CGT, GST, or ATO compliance
  • How to align your transfer with estate planning or family law orders
  • Whether a transfer supports or undermines your asset protection goals

Getting clear advice early means fewer risks, fewer surprises, and a smoother process from beginning to end.
