Landowners
Keep your titles, tax declarations, and ownership records clean and current — without giving up weeks of your year.
We help property buyers, owners, and families in Guimaras with title verification, land titling, transfers, Registry of Deeds follow-up, and tax declaration coordination — so you don't lose weeks chasing offices.
Keep your titles, tax declarations, and ownership records clean and current — without giving up weeks of your year.
Move from "Deed of Sale signed" to "title in your name" without the runaround between BIR, RD, and the Assessor's office.
Get inherited land properly titled and transferred. Start the paperwork early; finish it right; rest the matter for good.
Below is what we do. If your matter needs legal analysis or representation, we'll refer you to Edang Law Office instead.
Application and follow-through for new Original or Transfer Certificates of Title.
Transfers from sale, donation, succession, or partition. BIR, RD, and Assessor — handled.
If you've already filed and the file has stalled, we can take over the follow-through.
New tax declarations, updates following a transfer, corrections, and certifications.
Tell us what you have and what you need — a new title, a transfer, a tax declaration update. We'll tell you what's possible, what it costs, and how long it should realistically take.
We prepare and file the documents, queue at the right offices, and follow them through to release. You stay informed without having to chase.
You get clear status updates at each stage. If anything legal comes up — a dispute, a contested title, an agrarian question — we loop in Edang Law Office.
Most property paperwork in the Philippines is not difficult. It is slow, scattered, and easy to get wrong if you don't do it often. We do this every day — so you don't have to.
We know the Guimaras Registry of Deeds, the Assessor's offices, and the people who work there. Local presence is not a bullet point — it is the whole job.
We tell you upfront if your matter is a one-week errand or a six-month process — and if it actually needs a lawyer instead of a liaison.
Every document, every fee, every filing is logged and reported back to you. No mystery line items. No "trust me."
Before you sign a Deed of Sale — or before you commit any earnest money — verify what you're actually buying. We handle this for property buyers, owners, and families across Guimaras and nearby provinces.
Certified True Copy from the Registry of Deeds. No liens, encumbrances, or adverse claims hiding behind the certificate.
Single owner? Co-owners? Heirs of an estate? Each scenario needs different documents and signatures — we figure out which.
Boundaries, area, and ownership records at the Assessor's office should align with the title — they often don't, and we reconcile them.
CLOAs and DAR-covered land have transfer restrictions that can stop a sale cold. We flag these before you sign.
Years of unpaid RPT can attach to the property and surprise the new owner. We pull the records and confirm what's owed.
The land you're buying should match what the title says you're buying. We do site verification when needed.
Names and locations shared with permission. Quotes paraphrased lightly for clarity.
"After my mother passed, the land paperwork felt impossible. They walked me through every step, kept me updated, and finally got all four titles in our names. Worth every peso."

"I'm based in Riyadh and was buying property remotely. They handled everything from BIR to Registry of Deeds without me having to fly home. Photos and updates at every stage."

Realistically 6 to 12 weeks from start to release, depending on whether the BIR Certificate Authorizing Registration (CAR) is straightforward and how busy the Registry of Deeds is. We give a specific estimate after a short intake.
Not always. The administrative steps — gathering documents, paying BIR taxes, filing at the Registry of Deeds, updating the tax declaration — can be handled by a documentation service like ours.
The exception: drafting the underlying Deed of Sale, Donation, or Extrajudicial Settlement is legal work and should be done by a lawyer. We coordinate with Edang Law Office for that step when needed.
A title (TCT or OCT) is the legal proof of land ownership, issued by the Registry of Deeds. A tax declaration is a record at the Assessor's office used to calculate real property tax — it is not proof of ownership. Both should match, and we coordinate updates to both.
Our office is in Buenavista, Guimaras and that's where we operate most efficiently. We can take on properties in Iloilo and nearby provinces (Antique, Capiz, Negros Occidental), but timelines may be longer because of travel. Tell us where the property is during intake and we'll give you a realistic answer.
At minimum: the original title (TCT or OCT), valid IDs of all parties, proof of capital gains tax payment (or we'll help compute), and the underlying deed (Deed of Sale, Donation, or Extrajudicial Settlement).
We send a complete checklist after our first call so nothing is missed.
No. Guimaras Land & Property Services is an independent property documentation and liaison service. We do not provide legal advice or representation. For legal matters — disputes, contracts, agrarian reform questions (CLOA, DAR), estate settlement — we refer to Edang Law Office, an independent partner firm.
Request a Certified True Copy (CTC) of the title from the Registry of Deeds where the property is registered. Cross-check the technical description against the actual property location, confirm there are no liens or encumbrances annotated on the title, and verify the seller's name matches government IDs.
We handle this verification routinely as a pre-purchase step in Guimaras and nearby provinces — it's the single most important thing to do before you sign any deed.
Six things, in order:
We handle this entire due-diligence checklist before you sign anything. See the Buying property in Guimaras section above for details.
Foreigners cannot directly own land in the Philippines under the 1987 Constitution. They can:
Filipino spouses or families of foreigners can own land in their own name. For structuring a foreign acquisition specifically, this is legal work — we refer to Edang Law Office.
Yes. Agricultural land covered by the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) — including CLOA-titled land — has transfer restrictions:
Conversion of agricultural land to residential or commercial use requires a DAR conversion order. CLOA review and conversion are legal work, and we refer those to Edang Law Office. For pure documentation of an already-cleared transaction, we can help.
If your situation involves any of the items on the right, we'll connect you with Edang Law Office rather than handle it ourselves. They are an independent firm — separate engagement, separate fees. We coordinate so you don't have to repeat your story twice.
Not sure which side your matter falls on? Send it to us anyway — we'll point you to the right place at no cost.
Send us your concern. We'll respond within one working day with a clear next step — or refer you on if it needs a lawyer.
