Real Estate & Property Lawyer in Quezon City
We handle Quezon City property matters end to end: title verification with the Registry of Deeds for Quezon City, deeds of sale and transfer, lease drafting, ejectment cases before the Metropolitan Trial Court, and real property tax assessments issued by the City Treasurer.
Quezon City has a long history of subdivided estates, and older titles here carry more inherited problems than titles in newer districts — overlapping technical descriptions, uncancelled mortgages and adverse claims, and unsettled estates in the chain of ownership. We pull the certified true copy from the Registry of Deeds, trace the chain, check tax declarations and real property tax status at City Hall, and inspect actual possession before recommending that a purchase proceed.

Frequently asked questions
How do I verify a Quezon City land title before buying?
Get a certified true copy of the title directly from the Registry of Deeds for Quezon City — not the seller's photocopy — then check annotations, the tax declaration and real property tax clearance at City Hall, and who is actually in possession.
How long does an ejectment case take in Quezon City?
Unlawful detainer and forcible entry cases are summary proceedings before the Metropolitan Trial Court, so they move faster than ordinary civil cases, though appeals extend the timeline. The demand letter and the exact date possession became unlawful are decisive.
Can we contest a Quezon City real property tax assessment?
Yes. Assessments can be protested and appealed to the Local Board of Assessment Appeals, typically within strict deadlines from receipt. The classification and assessed value are both open to challenge.
