Hye dario,

I need advice from you. Here is the situation. I have 2 property which is under my parent name. Now my dad wants to transfer his title to me and my sis. What are the procedures that we need to go through? And is it possible if i settle it without the lawyer assistance? And if it is compulsory that we need lawyer's help,how much would it normally cost? Both of the property is still under installment. They are 99years of leasehold. I need your opinion on how to transfer the title that can minimise the cost. Thanks..

Still under installment would mean that there is an existing charge/assignment in favour of the bank. In other words, the bank is technically the beneficial owner of the property. You can either approach the bank and request to do a transfer subject to charge (if there's individual title). The bank can allow you do so subject to certain conditions, or request that a refinance plus transfer is done. Most likely, they would ask you to refinance. In both circumstances, you'd require a lawyer to do it.

If refinance, you and your sis is basically taking a new loan to settle your parents' loan and then a transfer of ownership is done. Legal fees are according to the loan sum taken and can be calculated at the first page of this thread using the calculator at the link provided.

Hey Dario,

If i don wanna transfer the name at the moment but delete my dad's name under the 2property,will it be cheaper than the cost of transfering title? Because now those properties are under my dad's and mom's name. So now if i take out my dad's name and put solely under my mom's name,will it be more convenient and way cheaper?
