Protecting Your Investment with a Declaration of Trust

When multiple people purchase a property together — or when a relative contributes a lump sum to help with a home purchase — it's essential to legally document each person's financial contribution. This is done through a Declaration of Trust (also known as a Deed of Trust).

A Declaration of Trust sets out the terms of ownership and helps prevent disputes by clearly outlining who owns what share of the property and what happens if circumstances change.

If you're:

  • Buying a property with a partner or friend

  • Contributing towards a loved one's home

  • Or simply want to safeguard your investment

Rupert Wood & Son can provide expert legal advice and assist you in drafting a Declaration of Trust tailored to your situation.
