Please answer a few questions so we can provide some guidance:
1. What country is the flat located in?
2. What country do you live in?
3. What is the approximate market value of the flat?

Also, if OP actually owns a 1/2 undivided interest in the flat (what is generally called "in common" ownership in the U.S.) such a gift would probably be 1/2 as valuable as would be a gift of the entire property.
