Covering both interspousal transactions and transfers from parents to adult children, the presentations focus strongly on tax considerations, including land transfer tax exemptions, estate administration tax, capital gains rollover rules, and how capital gains are calculated for non-principal residences. They also address hidden consideration risks, first-time buyer rebate impacts, and probate planning. Alongside tax, the sessions highlight legal risk management, assessing client circumstances, and documenting advice to ensure clear, proactive guidance that protects client interests.
