Features of donating real estate to your child
In the life of every person there are special moments, holidays, when you want to give an original gift so that it is necessary and worthwhile. This situation might include your daughter’s wedding. On her happiest day, who better than her parents should present the most original gift.
An apartment is best. Firstly, this will ensure her a happy life, and a deed of gift for her daughter’s apartment will allow her to remain its owner in the event of an unhappy marriage.
This is very simple to do, you need to conclude an appropriate agreement and your son or daughter will instantly become the owner of the specified housing. The specifics of the procedure depend on the age of the child.
Minor children cannot sign a document; one of the parents or guardian does this for them , providing the child’s birth certificate (we talked about the nuances of donating an apartment to a minor child in a separate article). Also, to donate an apartment to a mother to her daughter or son, there is no need to go to a notary.
If the parents are divorced, then the second spouse , who is not the donor, must give his consent to this gift.
You ask: “I want to give an apartment to my daughter, do I need to pay tax?” This is another important plus - there is no tax when donating an apartment to a native child .
The main feature is that after the transaction is completed, the child is not required to pay financially , since the procedure does not provide for this.
Are there any differences in gifting housing to a daughter versus a son?
Let us answer right away that no. Donation occurs on a general basis and does not imply any special features for different people .
The steps of the procedure are identical and will not take much time. All that is needed is your positive decision about this step.
See the following video for details of the transaction between relatives:
Conditions
Conditions depend on the age of the child.
Until the age of 14, all transactions are signed for him by his parents or guardians . During this procedure, the presence of the gifted person is not required.
But children from 14 to 18 years old can already be present when drawing up documents for a gift and sign on their own, but still in the presence of their parents or guardians.
At an adult age, a child can independently participate in such transactions , as well as dispose of donated real estate.

How to issue a deed of gift for an apartment or house for your daughter
Only the owner of the property can donate an apartment or otherwise transfer ownership rights to it. But in some cases the question arises of what to do if the consent of the spouse is required for the sale or donation of an apartment, since such a rule is provided for in the legislation. Property law intersects with family law in terms of ownership of real estate, which can be recognized as jointly acquired property, while the deed of gift for the apartment will become invalid in the absence of the consent of the other party. This norm has interesting features that you should pay attention to when preparing the sale or donation of real estate, in our case, an apartment. A court may recognize a gift transaction for the gratuitous transfer of property rights as invalid if the second spouse proves that he was not notified of the act of gift, having the right to object to it. And this right arises: Even if the recipient of the gift has successfully completed the procedure for registering property rights, the court may decide to cancel it if the second spouse proves that the transaction was completed without his consent.

I want to give an apartment to my daughter: what documents are needed?
To complete the transaction, you need to come together with the recipient to the nearest notary. Let's find out what documents are needed to formalize a deed of gift for your daughter's apartment:
- passports of both parties to the transaction and their photocopies;
- documents confirming your rights to living space;
- drawn up gift agreement;
- receipts for payment of fees, if any;
- power of attorney, if the true owner is not involved in the transaction;
- an extract from the BTI confirming the absence of debt;
- written consent of the second spouse;
- certificate from the housing office about the composition of residents.
Now you know what documents are needed to donate an apartment to your daughter. Let's move on to the execution of the contract itself.
We reviewed the full list of documents that will be needed to prepare a deed of gift for relatives here.
When you were simply deceived
The legislation also invalidates transactions where one party acted under the influence of deception or, being in a difficult life situation, signed an agreement on extremely unfavorable conditions for itself (Article 179 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).
But it will be necessary to prove that the other party knew about this and deliberately entered into the transaction. This condition makes it quite difficult to achieve the cancellation of the deed of gift - since the defendant, naturally, will insist that the donation occurred only of his own free will.
It is worth noting that one of the few examples of successful resolution of such a dispute was found. An elderly woman gave her only home to a distant relative without the condition that she reserves the right to live in this home for life.
Taking into account that at the age of 80 the woman voluntarily agreed that she would, in fact, remain on the street, the court found that she was mistaken regarding the nature of the deal and clearly entered into it on “enslaving” conditions.
The gift agreement was canceled (ruling of the Krasnoyarsk Regional Court dated April 22, 2015 in case No. 33-3946/2015).
How to draw up a contract correctly?
A sample agreement for donating an apartment to your daughter is specified in the law and is the same for everyone. All basic information must be clearly stated, without errors or amendments .
Both parties to the transaction must be present when drawing up the contract. This is the basic rule, so, unfortunately, it is impossible to donate an apartment without the recipient’s knowledge.
The contract should be like an appeal from the person who makes the gift to the future owner. The donor (as the person who started the procedure will be called) indicates all his personal data, full name, registration address, and the same data must be indicated about the recipient (hereinafter the new owner of the apartment). The document describes all the information about the transferred object :
- address;
- size of living space in square meters;
- number of rooms;
- assessed value.
The donor describes all the points that will come into force after registration of this agreement . He also describes that the former owner guarantees that this is his property and confirms with relevant certificates.
He further undertakes to vacate the apartment 10 days after signing the document . Both parties must declare with confidence that the transaction is voluntary, no one is forcing or inducing anyone to it through threats, and the procedure is taking place in a healthy mind and consciousness.
The donor takes full responsibility for any payment.
You can find out how much it will cost to complete a deed of gift between relatives, taking into account state fees and notary fees, here.
As a result, you draw up two copies of the document, the first remains with the notary where the transaction took place, the second is handed over to the new owner. At the end, the signature of both parties is placed. Next, the agreement is sent to the registry, where it is registered and begins to operate.
