Re: transfer real estate to son
It is very easy to do, but is it a good idea? If it will be his residence, it may be appropriate. If not, there are several ramifications to consider, including taxes when he sells.
You should consult an attorney, who will prepare a deed for you or advise you why to consider other options. The cost of a deed is normally less than $100.
