Document background
The Letter for Transfer of Ownership is a fundamental document in Irish property law, used when transferring ownership rights of real property from one party (the transferor) to another (the transferee). This document is required whenever there is a change in property ownership, whether through sale, gift, or other means of transfer. It must comply with the Land and Conveyancing Law Reform Act 2009 and other relevant Irish legislation. The letter serves as official evidence of the transfer and includes critical information such as property details, party information, transfer terms, and any relevant conditions. It is particularly important for property registration purposes and forms part of the chain of title documentation. The document must be properly executed, witnessed, and may require stamping depending on the nature of the transfer.
