I want to transfer the ownership

When a registered owner or registered owners want to transfer the legal ownership between themselves or within the family for example, they often think of it in terms of 'shares'. 
The property is in joint names of A and B and A wants to transfer their 50% share to B and B becomes the sole legal owner; OR
A is the sole owner and wants to transfer 30% to B or A wants to transfer the ownership to make him/her a joint owner with B
You can also multiply the numbers but the crucial thing to note is that when you are transferring the legal ownership it always done as a WHOLE (form TR1).
That is also true whether joint owners are registered as joint tenants or tenants in common
When people refer to a transfer of part (form TP1) they are referring to a transfer of a piece of the garden for example.
Whether its A to A/B or A, B to just A or EFGH to just FG it's always the whole that is transferred.
The shares can and do often relate to the beneficial ownerships and we cover that in other forum threads.

Land registration is complex, designed to protect legal and financial interests in property. There can be significant consequences for any error. Please consider seeking legal representation. Before making an application without legal representation, it is important to consider the benefits of using a conveyancer.
