1. I have the signed, notarized deed of sale. Lot was paid in full in 2013.
2. Lot sold to me was 300sqm, as per deed of sale.
3. Last month, the property seller (one of the big names out there) told me that after a "recent re-survey", the lot has decreased to 285sqm and that they want to refund me on this discrepancy.
I feel suspicious as this seems totally unnacceptable. I have already spent resouces in planning the lot area I thought I had. And it took them more than a year after the deed of sale to inform me of such discrepancy. The reason of the discrepancy, they told me, was that it was a "mistake" from the Land of Bureau. Also more suspicious to me is that the missing lot is just on the adjacent side, i.e. it now might be part of the lot a neighbor has.
Any advice on the matter is truly appreciated.
Salamat po!
