Person A and Person B purchase an estate in fee simple together, making equal contributions to the purchase price. They intend to be registered as tenants in common in equal shares. However, only Person A is registered. As a result, Person A holds 50% of the estate in fee simple as an apparent purchaser on trust for Person B, the real purchaser of that 50%. Person A transfers the whole of the estate in fee simple to Person B. Under this transfer, 50% represents Person B's beneficial interest in the property held by Person A and the other 50% is purchased by Person B. Although the transfer is for the whole of the estate in fee simple, no duty is chargeable in respect of the 50% that was held on trust by Person A as apparent purchaser for Person B, the real purchaser. S. 34(1B) inserted by No. 22/2018 s. 10(1). (1B) For the purposes of subsection (1) and (1A), money provided by a person other than the real purchaser is taken to be provided by the real purchaser, if the Commissioner is satisfied that the money— (a) was provided as a loan; and (b) has or will be repaid by the real purchaser.
