DUE DILIGENCE: TIPS BEFORE BUYING SUBDIVIDED LOTS

Common Pitfalls and Precautions

Purchasing a subdivided lot can be an exciting investment, but it comes with its share of risks. One prevalent issue faced by buyers is acquiring lots that do not have an approved subdivision plan from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). To help you navigate this process and avoid potential problems, here are some essential tips and questions to ask before making a purchase.

Key Questions to Ask:

1. Is this lot with an individual title already and tax declaration?
- If Yes: Great! Proceed with further due diligence. Itโ€™s advisable to engage the services of a licensed broker or lawyer to assist you.
- If No: Ask if the seller plans to deliver the individual title and tax declaration for your lot.
- If Yes: This is promising, but still proceed with caution and thorough due diligence.
- If No: Be wary if the seller only promises to deliver a tax declaration because the lot is not titled yet. This likely means the lot is being sold with a paper subdivision only.

2. Is the subdivision plan approved by the DENR?
- If the seller is providing a subdivision plan, ensure that it has been or will be approved by the DENR. If not, be extremely cautious. Without DENR approval, you could face significant issues down the road.

Why Due Diligence is Crucial

The absence of an approved subdivision plan from the DENR is a common problem, particularly in provincial areas. Some sellers, driven by entrepreneurial zeal, may offer lots through simple or complex subdivisions without the necessary approvals, leading to future complications for buyers.

The Role of Professionals

We strongly recommend seeking the services of licensed brokers and/or lawyers to guide you through the due diligence process. The professional fees involved are minimal compared to the potential investment and headaches you could face in the future.

6 Steps Before Buying Land

Step 1: Obtain a Copy of the Title

When a real estate agent or landowner offers a property for sale, the first step is to get a copy of the land title.
Investigate at the Register of Deeds using this copy to ensure the land is free of encumbrances such as mortgages, claims, or other issues. Verify that the copy matches exactly with the records at the Register of Deeds to confirm it is genuine and problem-free.

Step 2: Conduct a Relocation Survey

Hire a Geodetic Engineer to conduct a relocation survey of the land boundaries.
Ensure there are no structures or fences from adjacent lots encroaching on the property you intend to buy.

Step 3: Execute a Deed of Sale

If the land is problem-free, proceed to execute a Deed of Sale or "Contract of Sale".
Both the seller and buyer must sign the contract, and it must be notarized.

Step 4: Pay Documentary Stamps

Within one month from the notarization of the Deed of Sale, pay the Documentary Stamps.
This is a crucial payment that must be made promptly to avoid complications.

Step 5: Pay Capital Gains Tax

The seller must pay the Capital Gains Tax to the BIR (Bureau of Internal Revenue) because they earned from the sale.
The BIR will issue a Certificate of Authority to Register, certifying that all taxes have been paid and authorizing the transfer of the title to the buyer.

Step 6: Transfer Fees and Title Transfer

Once you have the Certificate of Authority to Register, take it to the Register of Deeds.
Pay the Transfer Fees, which are relatively inexpensive.

The Register of Deeds will surrender the Ownerโ€™s Copy of the title, and you will need to wait for the title transfer process to be completed. Continuous follow-up is necessary because the process at the Register of Deeds can take some time.

Following these steps ensures that the land purchase process is smooth and free from legal issues.
