Can Foreigners Own a Condominium Unit in the Philippines?

Can foreigners own condominium in the Philippines A lot of the queries we get are from foreigners asking how they can purchase a house and lot in the Philippines. Unfortunately, the Philippine real estate laws, as of this writing, on property ownership does not allow foreign ownership of lands. They can legally own a building or a house but they can’t own the land on which the property is built. They may be able to purchase lands but it has to be registered and named under a Filipino citizen. In most cases, a Filipino spouse.

But what if a foreigner wants to own real estate in the Philippines and he/she wants to register it under his/her name? Is this possible? The best answer to this would be purchasing a condominium unit instead as foreigners are allowed to have absolute ownership of up to 40% of a condominium project. Yes, absolute. According to R.A. 4726, foreigners can buy and register, under their own name, a condominium unit. The Condominium Certificate of Title (CTC) will be registered under the foreigner’s name.

Some people claim that foreigners can own a house and lot in the Philippines. How is this possible?
Those who claim that foreigners can own a house and lot in the Philippines have a condominium title to their property. This is not a common case since there are very few single-detached houses or townhouses in the Philippines with condominium titles. Most of the condominiums in the Philippines are mid to high rise buildings and are usually located within the cities.

Can Former Natural-born Filipino Citizens now Naturalized American Citizens Own Lands in the Philippines?

Can former natural born Filipinos own lands in the Philippines?I’m a Balikbayan who has become a naturalized American citizen. Can I acquire Real Property in the Philippines?

Yes, a natural born Filipino who has acquired American or any foreign citizenship may still own lands in the Philippines but with limitations in land area. For residential purposes, you may own up to 1,000 square meters of urban land and/or 1 hectare of rural land. For commercial/business purposes, you may own up to 5,000 square meters of urban land and/or 3 hectares of rural land. In case of married couples, each of them can avail of this privilege given that the total area acquired does not exceed the maximum land area allowed. However, if you avail of the Dual Citizenship Law, you can buy as much as any other Filipino citizen.

According to R.A.9225 (Dual Citizenship Law of 2003), former Filipino citizens who have acquired foreign citizenship or citizens of other countries have not lost their Philippine citizenship. Therefore, they can still enjoy all the rights and privileges of any other Filipino when it comes to land ownership in the Philippines.

How can I gain Dual Citizenship?
Here are the steps:

  1. File a “Petition for Dual Citizenship and Issuance of Identification Certificate (IC) pursuant to RA 9225” at the Bureau of Immigration (BI) and for the cancellation of your alien certificate of registration.
  2. If you are not in the Philippines or not Bureau of Immigration registered, you should file the petition at the nearest embassy or consulate in your place.

What are the requirements?

  • Birth certificate authenticated my the National Statistics Office (NSO) of the philippines. (This can be accomplished online and mailed to you)
  • Accomplish and submit a “Petition for Dual Citizenship and Issuance of Identification Certificate (IC) pursuant to RA 9225” to a Philippine embassy, consulate or the Bureau of Immigration.
  • Pay a processing fee $50. Then schedule and take an “Oath of Allegiance” before a consular officer.
  • The Bureau of Immigration in Manila receives the petition from the embassy or consular office. The Bureau of Immigration issues and sends an Identification Certificate of citizenship to the embassy or consular office.

How OFWs Can Reserve a Property in Davao City

How OFWs can reserve properties in Davao, PhilippinesI’m an OFW – How can I reserve the house and lot?

You’re an OFW who wants to purchase a house and lot in Davao City, Philippines. You’ve chosen the property that you like and now you want to reserve it to make sure that no one else gets hold of that specific property, may it be a house and lot, lot only, a condo unit, and etc.

There two ways on how you can reserve the property even when you are still abroad.

1. Reserve the property by using a Special Power of Attorney (SPA)
Choose a representative here in Davao City. Make sure that this person is someone you can trust. It’s best if you designate one of your relatives or a family member as your trustee. Send them the reservation money through bank to bank transfer, LBC, or any other types of money transfer convenient to you. Send a Special Power of Attorney to your trustee so he/she can legally represent you. Make sure that the SPA is duly authenticated by the nearest consul in the place where you are currently residing. The authentication of the SPA may take around a month. However, you may fax or send the notarized copy so that your reservation can already be processed. Make sure to send the authenticated copy at a later time.

Here’s a sample SPA:
IMPORTANT: It’s always advisable to consult a lawyer before entering into any legal agreements or executing any legal documents.

[gview file=”http://www.davaopropertyfinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/SPA-sample.doc”]

2. Reserve the property through a Bank to Bank Transfer of Payment
The second option you have in reserving a property here in Davao City is to pay directly to the Real Estate Developer.
You will need the following:

  • The Real Estate Developer’s bank account
  • The Real Estate Developer’s contact numbers to confirm the authenticity of the bank account and the people involved.

After paying the reservation fee, kindly inform us so we can trace the incoming deposit and the developer can issue an Official Receipt (O.R.). A scanned copy of the official Receipt will be sent to you via e-mail while the original copy will be sent later via postal mail.

It’s as easy as that! Even if you are living and working abroad, you can still reserve any properties for sale in Davao City.

Note:
*The Reservation Fee varies from developer to developer. Reservation fees usually range from Php5,000 to Php30,000. This may go higher depending on the developer and the type of property. For example, the reservation fee of a house and lot located in a high-end subdivision may go as high as Ph50,000.
*This reservation fee shall be deducted from the total package cost of the property.
