Tsi, marami pong salamat sa paglaan mo ng oras at sa iyong napakahalagang payo.
Meron lang po sana akong karagdagan katanongan:
1. Kung hindi po ba namin babayaran ang RPT, kasi nga po, nakapangalan pa naman sa developer ang property. Paano po ang mangyayari pag ayaw din bayaran ni developer ang RPT and then time will come na ililipat na sa name namin ang property. Kami na po ba mag shoulder nung RPT na supposedly liability ng developer?
2. Regarding po sa TERMS and conditions under sa Contract to Sell.
Actually, meron pong nakalagay na:
"14. OBLIGATIONS AFTER ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROPRETY. Acceptance of the PROPERTY by the BUYER, whether actual or constructive as referred to in the preceding paragraphs shall give rise to the following obligations:
14.1 REAL PROPERTY TAX AND ASSESSMENTS. Payments for the real property tax and assessments on the PROPERTY shall be borne by the BUYER from the time of acceptance of the PROPERTY by the BUYER, whether actual or constructive, in accordance with Pres. Decree No. 957 ..."
Subalit, sa isang pahina din under sa Contract to Sell. Meron pong nakasaad na medyo nagpapagulo sa pag-intindi namin. Ito po ang ilan sa nakasaad:
"16. TRANSFER OF TITLE AND OWNERSHIP. The BUYER understands that the Contract to Sell gives the BUYER only the right to purchase the PROPERTY subject to the fulfillment of the conditions herein stated. No other right, title or ownership is vested upon the BUYER by the execution of this Contract to Sell. The Seller retain ownership of the PROPERTY and title to the LOT until the BUYER has fully paid the Final Contract Price.
...
In case where the SELLER assigns its rights to HDMF at the instance of the BUYER, all related fees for documentary stamps, annotation fees, registrations fees, and the like shall be for the account of the BUYER. The BUYER also assumes full responsibility in paying the Real Property Tax commencing from the next quarterly tax payment schedule following the title transfer date. The moment title is transferred to BUYER's name, SELLER shall already be relived from shouldering the Real Property Tax Payments as this automatically becomes BUYER's sole responsibility..."
Sana po ay makapagbigay kayo ng karagdang linaw tungkol sa mga nakasaad sa aming Contract to Sell hingil po sa pagpapabayad ng RPT.
Again. maramin pong salamat in advance for you time.
