A somewhat general statement along these lines would be as follows. Suppose $\mathcal{D}$ is a cartesian closed locally presentable category and $d : \Delta \to \mathcal{D}$ is a cosimplicial object with associated geometric realization adjunction $|{\cdot}| : \mathrm{sSet} \to \mathcal{D}$, satisfying the following properties.
The maps $|\Lambda^n_k| \to |\Delta^n|$ have retracts for each $n \ge 1$ and $0 \le n \le k$.
Then $\mathrm{Sing} X$ is a fibrant simplicial set for any $X \in \mathcal{D}$, so every object will be fibrant in the transferred model structure.
The functor $|{\cdot}|$ preserves finite products.
Then $X^{|\Delta^1|}$ is a path object for $X = X^{|\Delta^0|}$, for any $X \in \mathcal{D}$.
This is enough to ensure that the transferred model structure exists, as described on the nLab. In fact, this is essentially how Quillen originally constructed the classical model structure on Top--except that the category of all topological spaces does not quite satisfy most of these conditions; but it comes close enough for similar arguments to go through.
Of course condition 1 (and to a lesser extent, condition 2) is far from formal, and the kinds of model structures produced in this way are rather special. As a trivial example, the Yoneda embedding $\Delta \to \mathrm{sSet}$ doesn't satisfy condition 1 (otherwise it would be automatic!) but obviously the model category structure on $\mathrm{sSet}$ can still be transferred across the identity functor.
