How to Apply for Land Title from Tax Declaration | Buying Property with no Title (Tax Dec only)

In todays video I’ll sharing with you how to process title transfer properties that only have a tax declaration but no title.

There are 3 stages of ownership of property:
Ownership by land title
Ownership by tax declaration
Ownership by rights

Ownership by land title is the strongest form of ownership. A land title, also known as a certificate of title, is a document that verifies a person's or group's right to purchase and acquire property. A property title can also assist landowners and homebuyers in determining existing liens, usage rights, easements, natural resource rights, and other rights.

Ownership by tax declaration. Although tax declarations or realty tax payment of property are not conclusive evidence of ownership, nevertheless, they are good indication of possession in the concept of owner for no one in his right mind would be paying taxes for a property that is not in his actual or at least constructive possession.

Ownership by rights is very hard to prove since you don’t have a legal document such as a title or tax declaration providing conclusive evidence as proof of ownership. Thus it is very risky to buy property with only “rights” as proof of ownership. You could end up buying from someone who isn’t legally entitled to the property and it could result to a Double Sale or a case when the property is sold to 2 or more different persons.
