There are certain documents that you need to provide to the respective office in order for the transfer of the land to take effect. There are four offices that require these documents. The Register of Deeds, the BIR, the Office of the Lawyer that you would have your deed of sale be notarized and the City Treasurer’s Office.
First, in order for the Deed of Sale to be secured, present it to the lawyer for notarization. You have to take note that the presence of the buyer and the seller is needed together with two known witnesses. In addition, the seller must be the one who owns the property to be sold or his authorized representative with a Special power of attorney to do so.
Owner’s Copy of the Transfer Certificate of Title;
Owner’s Copy of the Tax declarations.
Documents Applicant should bring for the Register of Deeds
Transfer documents with the transfer fee paid to the LGU where the property is located;
Tax Clearance Certificate from the LGU Treasurer;
Certified true copy of the tax declarations of the property;
BIR Certification Authorizing Registration;
BIR Form for the Transfer

In some cases the Department of Agrarian Reform will ask for additional requirements on properties that are subdivided, consolidation of properties and inherited properties as the case may be.

gud day ask po kung anong mga documents kelangan pagmagpapatitulo ng bahay at lupa
Hello!
May I ask sir/madam how many Original and notarized Deed of Absolute Sale or Extrajudicial Deed of Absolute sale document must we give to the buyer for him to effect land transfer to be used in the different gov’t offices like the BIR, ASSESSORS OFFICE, ROD etc.
Is 1 Original and notarized Deed of Absolute Sale enough to be used to all the gov’t offices and the rest of the Deed of Absolute Sale documents must just be 3 or more photocopies ?Am I right in saying that this 1 original, notarized DAS is stamped by BIR will just be given back by BIR with a stamp and this same document passed on or used to the other gov’t offices and only notarized copies left to each of the offices?
I don’t want to give many original notarized Deed of Absolute Sale document if unnecessary because I don’t want it to be used for other purposes by the buyer .
Kindly enlighten me on this regarding the updated( 2019) ruling on this ,please.
My dad said only 1 Original notarized DAS/EJDAS is enough and all the rest are 3 or more photocopies to be used to the different gov’t offices.
And, can you enlighten me on the requirements of each of the respective gov’t offices.
Is this right sir/madam?
Ask ko lng po pano po maililipat ang title ng lupa sa aming magkapatid. May nkatayo pong dlwang bhy at mas malaki ang sukat ng lupa ng isa sa amin. Ano po mga kailangan gawin. Thanks po
If dead na po yung nagbigay (lolo ko pong binata) ng lupa,pero may iniwan na dead of donation with his signature and thumbmark at may nagclaclaim na sa kanila (mga pamangkin) daw po ang property,dahil apo lang daw po ako.
Pero “tagibi” or alaga po at alaga po ako ng donor.
Ano po ang dapat kung gawin?
Salamat po sa reply.
Magtatanong lamang po kung ang isang property na land at meron ng bahay anong ilalagay sa deed of sale land lang ba or magpapagawa ng improvement kasi yong land at bahay na tinutukoy ko at housing project ng Pag-Ibig nabili ko sa pinsan ko at ang nakalagay parin hanggang ngayon sa TCT ay name ng original owner na nag apply sa housing loan
