    Capital gains tax if capital gain achieved for the original owner of their sold share.
    State Government land transfer duty. (check SRO in your state or google stamp duty calculator
    Legal costs for use of solicitor for transfer of ownership.

    Hard to lower costs unless property was set up in a trust owned by a company structure when purchased originally.
    Costs about $5000 to set up trust and shelf company -you would  need to talk to an accountant about it before joint ownership entered into.

    thanks duckster
    i will check for sro in victoria

    looks like thats fair bit of cost involved in doing that unless u setup a company which is complex process ..

    is there any here who can advise on how to setup the trust or can do this …

    for example in case of transfer from a to b

    who has to bear these costs

    both or person b to whom its being transferred to ..

    thanks
