    Default Advice needed - change property ownership

    Hi gurus, my partner is PR and I am a Sporean. Presently servicing a loan for one condo. Thinking of getting another but to avoid ABSD, that one would be under my name only.
    How do I go about transferring ownership and loan repayments of the first property to my partner? What kind of fees and complications would there be?
    Right now we just refinanced the loan and are in a lock in period.

    Thanks!!!

    when you exercise your option, tell your lawyer to apply remission for you. you just need to sign some form.
