    Hi, thanks for your reply.
    There is no mortgage on the property and she is not in need of immediate care (she's fit as a fiddle) but who knows what's around the corner?

    So would you say it's a good idea to do it? or would make little/no difference at all?


    Sorry, also would it be this

    form to change the house into DH name?

    If the property is registered and in England & Wales then form AP1 is the correct application form to use. However you will also need to complete other forms, inc the Transfer in form TR1.

    Our online FAQ explains how to transfer a property inc the forms needed and what evidence of identity is required.

    Transferring the property can be relatively straightforward but we would always recommend seeking legal advice. The issues already mentioned as well as what might happen after the Transfer should also be considered.

    Land Registry cannot provide legal advice but we can assist with completion of our forms and/or their lodgement - use the Contact Us information if such advice is needed in the future
