    Hi AAQ,
    This is just what I've been looking for. How do I get the name of the solicitor (please!!!!!!) We have friends that did the "love and affection" transfer in Victoria and all was well, I'm getting pretty frustrated here. Really looking forward to some help.

    Hi Guys;
    There is a way of minimising stamp duty in QLD and it took a lot of phoning to find a solicitor who knew about it.
    You can legally put the house in your wifes name only by using the terms "for love and affection" It doesn't completely get rid of the stamp duty but ours went down from $14,000 quoted by a conveyancer to $3600 and I was happy to pay that solicitors fees on top I can tell you!
    We have just done it but you need a solicitor not a conveyancer to do the paperwork!
    Hopefully this will save you a few $ and you wont have to get divorced!
