The Legal Side of Real Estate

How about the size of the unit as stated in the contract to sell, is it the size of the unit being delivered to you?

 

no sir, per contract the area is 18.5 sq.m while per measurement of my engineer friend is more or less 15 sq.m.

Who is the developer of the condo? When you refused delivery because it was not the agreed upon size, what did the developer say? It would be better to settle this amicably if a compromise could be made, as the determination of this issue could take long.

Sir, I actually requesting for a replacement unit from the developer, however, they offered me available units with the same area of 15 sq.m. last monday i was able to write a letter of complaint address to HLURB and Pag-ibig re my case. I awaiting for their responses.

gud day po.

pinapaalis po kami sa tinitirhan namin pero habang nasa court pa ang kaso, may isang bumili raw ng lupang tinitirhan namin at ngayon gumagawa na ng mga hakbang para makapag file ng kaso para mapa alis kami. pwedi po bang dalawa ang haharapin naming kaso?

[rocco69]

depende. kung magka-iba ang nature ng kaso pwede, pero kung pareho lang, hindi pu-pwede. pwedeng ipa-dismiss yung pangalawang kaso pag ganun. e.g. kung ang kinakaharap nyo sa kasalukuyan ay ejectment case, tapos ejectment din ang isasampa sa inyo ng nakabili, di pwede yun, madidismiss ang isa sa mga kasong yan. kung ang isang kaso naman ay ejectment samantalang ang isa ay iba, halimbawa annulment of title, maaaring tumakbo ng sabay ang dalawang ito.

Just to make it clear, do they acknowledge that the unit is 15 sq. m. therefore less than what is provided for in the contract or are they saying it is the size of what is in the contract to sell? It would be a big difference if they dispute your assertion as to size.

Review your deed of absolute sale again, check if it's "gross floor area" or "net floor area" of 18.5sqm.

Good day, Would questions about Real Estate Tax be suitable here?

 

Because I wanted to ask anyone knowledgeable if there are exemptions granted on real estate tax payments to owners of lots which are being used by educational institutions.

 

Hope somebody can help. Thanks!

Sa ilalim ng Sec. 234( ng Local Government Code:

 

"Charitable institutions, churches, parsonages or convents appurtenant thereto, mosques, non-profit or religious cemeteries and all lands, buildings, and improvements actually, directly, and exclusively used for religious, charitable or educational purposes" are exempt from real property taxes.

 

kaya lang, sabi ng Korte Suprema sa Lung Center of the Phils. v. QC (GR No. 144104, June 29, 2004) para maka-avail sa tax exemption kailangan ang nag-aaplay para sa exemption ay:

 

(a) it is a charitable institution; and

( its real properties are ACTUALLY, DIRECTLY and EXCLUSIVELY used for charitable purposes.

 

kaya lumalabas ang owner ng lote kung pinapaupahan niya ang lupa niya sa educational institution, ay hindi exempted from paying real estate taxes sa ilalim ng Local Government Code, dahil para sa kanya, hindi naman for educational purpose ang lupa kundi for income (pinapa-upahan niya di ba).

Mga Gurus, I have a question.

 

For QC RD, does getting a Certified true copy really takes 1 week? I remember in the 90s. getting a CTC usually takes less than day.

 

Is there a way for me to get it faster? thanks

[wizard23]

fellow brokers. need your advice here. im applying for broker accreditation sa Eton Properties. kaya lang they

don't accredit individual brokers, only broker companies. i decided to

register a sole proprietorship name with DTI. what do i do next to establish my broker company?

do i have to apply with BIR again for the OR under my company name?

pero di ba, the license i will use is still my individual broker's license?

 

thanks in advance for the advice.

Most Registry of Deeds issue the Certified True Copy of the OCT/TCT/CCT within 3 days. QC and Makati are faster in that it averages 2 days while Caloocan is one of the worse at 6 days. As for getting it faster, of course there are ways, but they are illegal.

If you have a brokerage company, that company will be using your individual REBL#. SMS me if you have other questions wizard23.

i recently bought a small condo unit at P500K+ 3 years ago. they said the value of my unit is now P700k+ and every year it will increase. my question is: is there a time that my condo unit will start depreciate? 25 years? 30 years? thanks!
