Owning a property with someone else is a common arrangement, but circumstances change. At Shentons, we can help you navigate the process of transferring the ownership, or equity, of your property.
Meet the Property legal team
A Transfer of Equity is a change in the co-ownership status of a property where at least one original owner remains. This is a common occurrence during a divorce, where a co-owner is removed from the deeds or upon a marriage where a spouse is added.
A Transfer of Ownership is a complete transfer of the property. This is often used when a parent wants to gift a property to their adult child.
Our Specialist Property Lawyers can help you find the route that is right for you. We will help you understand the Stamp Duty Land Tax implications of your transaction and we will work directly with your mortgage lender to ensure the process goes smoothly.
We are members of the Law Society Conveyancing Quality Scheme, this means that each of our Lawyers undergo additional annual training and provides extra reassurance that our knowledge is up to date, for more information, click here: Law Society Conveyancing Quality Scheme

8 months agoMy whole experience of Rachel and Chloe representing me, guiding myself through a very stressful court process was second to none. They are highly professional, highly experienced in their field and gave solid, clear advice. I can't recommend them and Shenton's enough. Thank you. - PPosted on Google

10 months agoI was involved in criminal case over the course of 4 years, my original solicitor two years into my case then let me down due to conflict of interest, I was then given Shenton’s number. They took my case on and ended up being miles better than my previous solicitor Everyone was so helpful, easy to get hold of, everything was explained to me really well, The matter in hand was rather sensitive to myself and it was a tough defence, and I felt very supported by all staff involved in my case. Shentons behind the scenes sourced independent people in to help with my defence, I found confident throughout my court case with shentons, I was confident that they would complete all tasks needed and didn’t need to worry about anything with shentons, they gave me peace of mind. I was able to receive legal aid Shentons after 4 years of going though this ordeal, a month before the trial was due to start shentons was able to get the CPS to completely drop all charges! Would highly recommend to anyone, great firm, staff are investedPosted on Google

7 months agoI can't thank Shentons enough. Back in 2021, I needed their services, which went on until January this year. The communication and the way they represented me was outstanding, which showed in court. I would highly recommend.Posted on Google
