You could save on stamp duty by getting married
You can save on IHT by doing similar.
Assuming one parent has died:-
- Remaining parent marries partner of child.
- Parent dies and child's partner inherits everything as spouse (assuming the will is properly drawn up)
- Child then free to marry partner.
Or something like that...
- Remaining parent marries partner of child.

You could save on stamp duty by getting married, then annulling the marriage after the transfer is complete...
