Purchasing property from family

I would like to purchase a house from one of my parents to provide an opportunity to realise equity (hopefully into another property).

As per the rates certificate the improved value of the house is $335,000. The house is currently under finance for approx $120,000. The house is located in city Victoria.

I have had an established trust (control without ownership per se) for a while that looks after another property and I would like to purchase this house to add to the portfolio.

Is there a way to minimise the costs associated with the transfer?

Is there another way to use the trust?

What would be the effect if my parent was to be a beneficiary?

I look forward to any comments you can offer.

Cheers.
