    Hi MAQ

    Firstly welcome to the forum.

    Cant recommend an Accountant unfortunately but it is not as easy as that.

    It is not a matter of just changing the name on the finance into a Trust name unless the property is also held in that entity.
    Selling the property to a DFT will incur Stamp Duty as well as possible CGT so might want to think twice before rushing in.

    Just make sure you avoid their PIT if you want to finance the deal in future as choices wont be great.
