Co-ownership of property

Joint purchase of property needs careful consideration, especially for unmarried couples or friends purchasing together and in circumstances where the buyers are contributing to the purchase in unequal shares. The arrangements need to be clearly documented to minimise the risk of disputes arising later.

We can advise on:

• Declarations of trust setting out the terms of co-ownership
• Advice on holding property as joint tenants or tenancy in common
• Wills (see section on Wills)

We aim to provide our services promptly and to give clear information about the cost of the work.
