Hi,
I am thinking of purchasing property under my son's name. He is above 21. I am thinking that this will eliminate transfer fees if something happens to me (I do have a Will with my son as beneficiary). Also, looking at the 50% first time buyer stamp duty discount for property < RM1M. Plan is to buy cash, no loan.
Is there any cons of doing this or any other benefits, either for me or my son? Obviously he will use up his 'first time buyer' privilege in case such benefit is offered in future.
Advise and opinions appreciated. Thanks.

Leave whatever benefits of his to him. If not next time he wan move out then blaming game happen. Spend that 10k to keep ur head up la. Thanks for advise, but no issues here. Got more houses than immediate family.  Enough for everyone.
