Before Buying

1. Check if the Project has a License to Sell.
   You should ask the seller or broker/agent of the owner/developer if the project is registered and has a License to Sell issued by HLURB:
   • This can be verified in the HLURB website (www.hlurb.gov.ph) for list of projects with approved Certificate of Registration and License to Sell;
   • Or you may go to the nearest HLURB Regional Office for this information (Click here for the names and addresses of HLURB Regional Officers with its telephone number).
2. Conduct a personal visit to the subdivision/condominium, where the house and lot or condo unit to be purchased is located;
   If the project has a License to Sell, you may already enter into a Contract to Sell with the owner/developer. However, there are things which must be checked:
3. The date of completion of the project as indicated in the License to Sell;
4. If the property is mortgaged, it should have a Clearance to Mortgage from the HLURB;
5. That the facilities and amenities represented in the advertisement flyers/ brochures are in accordance with the approved subdivision and condominium plan on file with HLURB.
