If you are transferring property to a spouse or relative, a release deed is better in case of joint ownership. A gift deed works if property is solely yours. Stamp duty and registration charges vary by state, generally 1%–3%. A local lawyer can help choose the right one. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
