Transfer of title or transfer of ownership happens when a person is added or removed from the property ownership or title by the owner of the property. Many documents are required during this process such as approval by the lender, ownership documents, property tax bill, insurance for the property and many more.

In cases involving matrimonial or common-law breakups, we will require a signed separation agreement drafted by a family law lawyer before proceeding with the transfer. In the case of a spousal transfer with a mortgage on the property, the approval from the lender is required before a real estate lawyer can complete the title transfer to your spouse. We can also help you with survivorship applications.
