Sell Home to Your Child • One way to transfer title is to sell the home to your child. • The child will need to qualify for a mortgage. • The child will also be responsible for property taxes and other expenses. 2. Gift Your Property • Another way to transfer title is to gift the property to your child. • This will involve a gift deed. • There are no taxes due on a gift of real estate if the value of the gift is less than the annual gift tax exemption.
3. Bequeath Your Property • The third way to transfer title is to bequeath the property to your child in your will. • There are no taxes due on the transfer of property at death. 4. Deed/Title Transfer • Once you have decided how you want to transfer title, you will need to prepare a deed. • The deed must be signed by the current owner of the property and must be recorded with the local land registry.
5. Title Transfer with Mortgage • If the property has a mortgage, the parent can add the child as a co-signer or transfer the mortgage entirely to the child. • Adding the child as a co-signer means both parents are responsible for payments. • Transferring the mortgage entirely to the child means the parent is no longer responsible for payments. • Land transfer taxes may apply.
