Common Questions About Problem Properties
Can untitled land with only a tax declaration be converted into an official title?
Yes. We assist property owners in applying for original titling through administrative or judicial channels, provided the land is classified as alienable and disposable by the government.
Why won't banks accept tax declarations as loan collateral?
Banks require an official Transfer Certificate of Title (TCT) or Original Certificate of Title (OCT) to secure mortgages. A tax declaration only shows tax payments, not absolute proof of ownership under land registration laws.
How do you resolve overlapping land boundaries with neighbors?
We conduct precise relocation surveys using accredited geodetic engineers to compare actual ground fences with government survey maps, resolving discrepancies legally through proper agency channels.
