Bonus Episode: Helping Your Children Buy Property – Gift or Loan?

In this bonus episode of Billable Banter with Ballantyne Law, James explores an issue many families face today: parents advancing money to help their children into the property market.

While generous, these arrangements can cause disputes if they aren’t properly documented. James explains:

• The legal presumption of advancement (why the law assumes it’s a gift)
• How to clearly document whether funds are a gift or a loan
• When to consider a loan agreement or registering a mortgage
• How good documentation helps avoid costly disputes later on

If you’re considering advancing money to your children, listen in for practical steps to protect your family and your finances.
