A TR1 form transfers the whole of a property from one party to another and is the basis of a legally binding agreement. It also allows unregistered property to become registered. The TR1 form finalises the sale in property purchases, and is sent out to the third-party for completion, together with the funds for purchase. A stamp duty certification, form AP1 and a certificate of identity should accompany the TR1.
Before completing a TR1, you will need to establish whether a property is registered and what is in the register.
What Information does a TR1 form include?
The TR1 contains the following information:
The title number, plus a brief description of the property.
The date and details of each party involved in the sale and purchase/transfer.
A correspondence address used for each party.
A transfer clause, which is standard on all TR1 forms.
The amount paid for purchase of the property, or stipulation that the property is a gift.
Title guarantees, declarations of trust and additional provisions form the body of the TR1 and are all specialist matters involving covenants and ownership. These should only be completed by a professional.
