Pre-Sale Purchase Checklist
54 points you must verify before signing the contract. Includes 28 critical points that can save you hundreds of thousands of pesos in legal issues.
Developer and track record
Before you sign, find out who is selling and what they have already delivered.
Legal paperwork on the land
The foundation of everything: is the land legally cleared for this use?
Permits and utility clearances
No permits, no legal construction. No legal construction, no handover.
Pre-construction purchase agreement
Read every clause. Whatever is not written down does not exist.
Financing and payment schedule
Before you sign, make sure you can carry the schedule all the way through.
Handover and closing
Taking the keys is not the same as holding the title.
If you are buying to invest
Extra checks when your goal is rental income or appreciation.
Why buy pre-sale?
Buying pre-sale offers real advantages — lower price than delivery, extended payment plans, ability to choose view/location within the development and appreciation potential before closing.
It also has risks. Without verification, you can lose your down payment, receive a property different from what was promised, or get stuck in a project that never finishes. This checklist is the minimum standard.
