Add a spouse to your title. Remove a name after separation. Transfer within a family or an estate. A licensed Alberta real estate lawyer prepares and registers the transfer at Alberta Land Titles — remotely, from anywhere in the province, for a flat fee confirmed in writing before any work begins.
Call or text — you'll reach a real estate lawyer's office, not a call centre. Fee for your specific transfer confirmed the same day.
A title transfer has a legal fee and a government registration fee. Alberta Land Titles charges $50 plus $5 per $5,000 of property value on a transfer (source: alberta.ca, verified June 2026) — that part is the same no matter who you hire. Our legal fee is flat, quoted upfront, and confirmed in writing before any work begins. If a mortgage consent, discharge, or refinance is involved, we tell you at quote stage — never on the invoice.
A transfer of land is prepared and registered at Alberta Land Titles, moving the property into joint names. If there's a mortgage, your lender's consent is usually required first. We prepare the transfer, confirm how you'll hold title (joint tenants or tenants in common — the difference matters if one of you dies), obtain consents, and register the change. You sign by secure video from anywhere in Alberta.
A transfer moves the property into the remaining owner's name, usually alongside a refinance that takes the departing spouse off the mortgage. The transfer typically flows from your separation agreement or court order. We coordinate the transfer, the new mortgage registration, and the Land Titles filing — with a flat fee confirmed in writing first.
Two parts: Alberta Land Titles charges $50 plus $5 per $5,000 of property value; our legal fee is flat and confirmed in writing before any work begins. Call or text 780-473-7779 and we'll confirm the figure for your transfer, usually the same day.
Transfers interact with mortgages, dower rights, tax rules, and how title is held — mistakes surface years later, at sale, refinance, or in an estate. A lawyer gets the consent, the tenancy, and the registration right the first time. Given what the property is worth, it's inexpensive insurance.
Yes. You sign by secure video with a licensed Alberta real estate lawyer who verifies your identity on camera; paper originals travel by courier both ways; the transfer registers at Alberta Land Titles with the same legal weight as an office signing.
Your flat fee confirmed in writing, usually the same day — before any work begins.
