What constitutes a resulting trust for the transferor of property?

Where property is transferred to another person without consideration, explanation or other legal grounds, that property is said to be held by way of a resulting trust for the transferor; it “results” back to that person. Even between family members, there is a presumption of resulting trust for gratuitous transfers of funds or property; as stated in Pecore v. Pecore, 2007 SCC 17, [2007] 1 S.C.R. 795 at para. 24: The presumption of resulting trust is a rebuttable presumption of law and general rule that applies to gratuitous transfers. When a transfer is made for no consideration, the onus is placed on the transferee to demonstrate that a gift was intended. This is so because equity presumes bargains, not gifts.
