How much does it cost to rename my sister's house?

Legal analysis: if the property right of the house is transferred by gift, the main expenses of the gift are: individual tax+deed tax+notary fee. If the house is a gift, there is no business tax. However, because the gift is considered as a free gift, the donee needs to pay personal income tax, deed tax and notary fee, which is much higher than the tax for business transfer. However, for the donated property, banks generally assume that the donee accepts the gift for free and there is no actual transaction, so the donated house cannot apply for mortgage loan.
