One big reason is ๐—ฉ๐—”๐—ง.

When you buy from a developer, you are usually not buying a โ€œcapital asset.โ€ You are buying an ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜.

Hereโ€™s the simple difference:

๐Ÿก ๐—–๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜
This is usually a personal property being sold by an individual โ€” like a family home, an inherited lot, or a property they are not selling as part of a real estate business.

The taxes are usually simpler. Instead of VAT, the sale may involve taxes and fees like:

โ€ข 6% Capital Gains Tax
โ€ข 1.5% Documentary Stamp Tax
โ€ข Transfer tax
โ€ข Registration fees

In simple terms: this is usually a resale property from a private owner, and 12% VAT normally does not apply.

๐Ÿข ๐—ข๐—ฟ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜
This is usually a property being sold by a developer or someone in the real estate business. Because it is part of their business inventory, 12% VAT may apply.

That matters because VAT is often already built into the selling price.

So when you see a โ‚ฑ5M condo or house-and-lot from a developer, part of that price may actually be tax โ€” not just the value of the property itself.

This is why developer prices and resale prices are not always โ€œapples to apples.โ€

Before buying, always ask:

โœ… Is VAT already included in the price?
โœ… Are there transfer or processing fees?
โœ… What is the total cost, not just the selling price?
โœ… How does this compare with a resale property?

Real estate can feel confusing, but understanding the basics can help you make smarter decisions. ๐Ÿก

Not all homebuyers are covered by Maceda Law โ€” it depends on how youโ€™re paying. ๐Ÿ 

If youโ€™re still paying equity directly to the developer, you may still be protected. But once your bank or Pag-IBIG loan is released, your agreement shifts from installment payments to loan repayment.

Know your rights before signing or assuming anything. This is for general information only and not legal advice.

Good news for Filipino homebuyers! ๐Ÿก

Pag-IBIG Fund has increased its maximum housing loan amount to โ‚ฑ10 million per borrower, helping more qualified members access long-term home financing โ€” especially those looking for homes in Metro Manila and other urban areas.

This move also supports the Expanded 4PH Program and gives more Filipino workers, including middle-income and higher-earning members, a better chance to own a home instead of renting.

Loan approval is still subject to Pag-IBIGโ€™s credit evaluation, capacity-to-pay, appraisal, and other guidelines.
