... who has bought a piece of land in the Philippines and can tell me, how long it takes to register at the Land Registry in the Philippines. We bought a lot from Empire Estates and finished paying for it in Dec 2005. They told us the deeds would be ready in April 2006 then they told us it would be Aug. Now they tell us October 2006. I just don't know WHEN to say 'enough is enough' and go see a lawyer. My wife is Filipina and refuses to accept that something may be wrong. For other things I started to distrust that company, for a start because the Deed of Sale had already been signed by the rep of the compmay when we went to the company to sign it. The legal requirement is that a Deed must always be signed by the seller IN THE PRESENCE of the seller and vice versa. When I asked to see the lawer rep of the seller company about that... they were all busy so we signed the Deeds in the presenc of... no one from the company. Can anyone in the know help please. Thank you so much.

go the Philippine Consulate General in your area. They would be be able to probably guide you through that. My brother and I are going through a situation ourselves with land in the Philippines as well. Good Luck!
