Intra-Family Transfers

We facilitate intra-family transfers, allowing you to transfer real property assets to another family member.

At the Law Offices of Daniel A. Hunt, we understand that transferring wealth or property within your family is more than just a transaction—it’s a legacy. Whether you’re helping a loved one purchase their first home, passing down a family business, or ensuring the family vacation property stays in the family, these decisions carry emotional and financial significance.

Our experienced estate planning attorneys are here to guide you through the process, ensuring your goals are met with care and precision. Contact our Sacramento real estate law firm today to schedule your no-cost initial consultation.

What Is an Intra-Family Transfer?

An intra-family transfer involves transferring assets, such as real estate, money, or business interests, to another family member. These transfers can occur during your lifetime (through gifting or sales) or after death (via trusts, wills, or other estate planning tools). While intra-family transfers can provide meaningful benefits, they also involve complex legal and tax considerations.
