Without it, the post WW2 infrastructure and prosperity wouldn't have been possible, and the US wouldn't be the economic powerhouse it is. Without it, hazardous food and products and environmental pollution would have ruined millions of lives. That being said, it's not regulation that provides the guardrails for real estate transactions. It's legislation.

[@eduardomaldonado1647]

What I learned In life is that about 90% of the people in this world are Trash. The other 10% are really good people. That is what makes finding that 10% of the people extra special. In the Phillipines its like the wild west especially in the provinces. Often nobody knows who owns what land. Sometimes someone is selling the land and eventually the real owner is not even aware that the land is being sold. Family even scams its own family. Usually it is much better to just Rent. Her as a filipina needs to do her own research such as getting familiar with the people in the community and figure out who really owns the land and get the opinion of 3 different real estate agents who do not know each other so they can audit each other.

The prices for land here are ridiculously high and I told my wife we wont buy if the price is over 700php per sq/m. It's so bad here that my wifes own family has tried to trick us into buying property without doing a servey or proper title search and kept trying to demand my wife pay them immediatly if we wanted to property so finally I told my wife we will not buy their property and later I found out that the properties were all under one mother title with many names on it and would have made it a nightmare to fix.

My wifes family wanted to sell us two lots side by side which are just over 800 sqm total and is a decent size and along a dirt road which is a right of way in Bohol and offering us the land for 120K PHP but they were becoming rude towards me when I said I wanted to do a servey and title check first so I told my wife that we are not going to buy and that I didn't want to hear about it again. They aren't direct family members so I don't talk to them and I just refuse to be scammed. I have already given my wifes mother and my wifes older sister more money than that to build their own houses after they were destroyed a few years ago in the super typhoon and after that is when other family members started asking for money and then the offers of buying land started. My wife tries to protect me from that as much as possible which is why we dont live near her family but there are a couple members of her family like her mother, two of her sisters and her brother who have never asked us for money but my wife still sends them some support every now and then which I am completely okay with.

If a person lies for one thing, they will lie in other things, report the real estate agent to the real estate license agency and sue all of them. I recommend that that Rebeauti reach out to "Filipina Pea" on this matter and ask her to reach out to her lawyer friend to see what can be done. If the lawyer says they can be sued, then hire her to sue them. Normally in situations like this, the lawyer will not charge something upfront but will get a percentage of the settlement. Not all lawyers are the same, nor are their proficiency on the matter.

[@danelionheart5881]

Now that would be good advice if it was possible. You see the neighbor could sell land and they might have just got done the 8th grade. Most people that sell the land are not a real estate agency. That is why she made the comment that to have the land surveyed to show proof of deed. Then you know what you really would be buying. Yes she got Scammed A true real estate would have done all the work to be sure because then it would have been on them if something went wrong.

[@Chr1s-fm6bi]

[@XsxLife]

@@danelionheart5881 I think you missed the fact that she stated that there were real estate agents involved, more than one. There are crooked real estate agents all over the world. The Philippines has strict laws against selling property not legally yours. Such fraudulent activities can lead to serious legal charges, including fraud or estafa, as these acts are criminal offenses under the country’s penal code. Proper documentation proving legitimate ownership is mandatory before initiating any sale. Before a real estate agent initiates selling property in the Philippines they must have the following documents: 1) Certified True Copy of the property title. 2) Tax Declaration and Real Estate Tax Clearance for the current year. 3) Certificate Authorizing Registration and official receipts from the Bureau of Internal Revenue. 4) If applicable, a Special Power of Attorney (if a representative is acting on your behalf). Those documents will clearly show where the property is located. The real estates agents took advantage of her in a bait and switch scam. They showed one property and in turned sold her something different. The so-called owner was in on the scam. She should definitely report them and sue them!!!

[@FactFinderer]

QUESTION: Why don't you sue the realestate conpany for defrauding you into your purchase. It's simply called, "Bait and Switch" and is illegal in nearly every jurisdiction. They show you a property in your price-range that is fairly flat, buildable, and has an established easement (right of way). Then, after ignoring you over-and-over, they switch you to a different property (regardless of view); which is on a sloping lot, with no approved easement. They switched you to a land-locked property. This is called a, "Con." They convinced you to make your purchase under false pretenses. Criminals are not honest, and will lie, cheat, and steal their way into your purse. Take them to court, and ask for triple damages.

Payment always comes last after the property survey is complete and documents are signed and notarized. You may need 11 or more original sets of documents to satisfy all of the transfer requirements. Also, property taxes need to be current. Remember always: Slow and steady wins the race.

The story they gave you about the death may be a lie, also. 3) Never trust people when it comes to money, unless you don't care about the money. Money motivates people to do terrible things.

Even if it doesn't work out think about the costs as an insurance against a possible more costly mistake. Read and understand the stuff you sign if you don't know what something means, figure it out. Take this experience as a life lesson and now you come out smarter, may be expensive but life has those kinds of lessons.

[@glenclarkchidley3637]

Why is “I can’t believe I’m this stupid” never a forethought? It’s always clear and present as an afterthought. We are all guilty!!!

[@howardsells2000]

So sorry to hear this.

[@PUREPHILIPPINES]

So sorry for you getting scammed its so horrifying to be taken advantage of. You'rer a trusting, nice person. Its horrible. We had similar problems. A Doctor tried to sell us land with a photocopy of the title, not the original, he said he would get the original title later we paid for the survey (15k) and then he booked us into the public lawyer to notarize the sale. He didn't have the required documents for a legal sale but still tried to take 2 million pesos from us 😮. We lost 15k for the survey but the next person he sold it too wasn't so lucky. The original title had 3 signatures so the sale was void without the other 2 family members signature. It's a minefield buying land in the philippines 😢

[@JenGioPhilippineJourney]

Hunny take a breath. I'm truly sorry about this land scam. 😢😢😢 can you take them to court to get your money back ? Big hug and sending you and love ❤️ . Get a attorney and take them to court and jail

[@maxxd4119]

Hahaha..you dont live here do you..

[@JenGioPhilippineJourney]

@maxxd4119 yes I do live in Philippines

[@JenGioPhilippineJourney]

@maxxd4119 and I have attorney to handle all I do like land purchases or real-estate matters.

[@JenGioPhilippineJourney]

@maxxd4119 so your a scammer I see your one that prays on people cause you lazy to work.

[@xomox5316]

we all get fooled multiple times in our life, thanks for sharing. Also do not let the fraud go unpunished no matter what sob story they give you.

[@DManGrand]

I would have filed criminal charges against the whole clan for fraud. Let the court sort it out.

[@user-tt2mb8oc9c]

Please stop calling yourself stupid.

[@samual3006]

​@user-rd2em4zw1s Are you sure this isn't a sob story to get more money from subscribers 🤔. Remember Filipinas are the world's best liers.

[@briansimson933]

it's called "Bait and Switch" here in the USA along with "Access" for said property. Better watch some Filipina Pea in order to hear all the common excuses for fraud and theft, which is very common among your fellow countrymen.

[@Ranger4564]

So sorry to hear about your trouble.

[@DMVPRIDE10]

wow 90k subs now! I remember you were just 8k haha. So proud how far you you come.

[@ivannovotny4552]

As former, late US president Ronald Reagan wisely pointed out: "Trust But Verify."

[@aaronrichards19886]

Biden could learn a thing or 30 from Reagen.

[@theking1446]

Sorry Rubeauty. You’re not stupid. You saw the signs. And I hate the fact you got taken advantage of. If you need anything , let us know

[@Rubenawhkif]

Before signing and paying, attorney, police and Barangay's worker should have supervised and approved the operation you were accepting. Next time you will not be scammed. Bad people everywhere, bad experience, good learning. Wish you the best. Thanks for sharing.

[@RA-oz4xk]

They need to be held accountable for fraud. No matter what.

[@claylifto2356]

A person who purports to be so wise to her audience, herself doesn't seek wise advice.

[@samuelstambaugh5181]

Unfortunately this happens far too often! 😡!

[@billbillson3129]

Oh no!!! I am sorry to hear that you were lied to and scammed out of so much money! Good luck getting some kind of payback! Best wishes from Texas Rubeauti!

[@user-lw2ks2ch7j]

So sorry to hear this. Life is not always easy for a loving and trusting soul such as yourself. But in the end, you will win at the game of life! Now you are wiser... but stay true to yourself.

[@rvqx]

Thank you for sharing the good times and the bad times, It almost gives me the feeling it has happened to me. Everywhere there are bad people, but they are not the majority.

[@TheHelixballerone]

WOW ! that is so messed up ! Im so sorry...

[@netizenplanet]

[@DonShelman]

So sorry this has happened to you. But, thank you for sharing your experience, embarrassing as it is. You will save others from making some of the same mistakes. Good luck, and keep us informed!

[@kuhnsanuk]

[@sg1fan75]

[@theenlightenedbarbarian1611]

I am so sorry this happened to you. You are a wonderful person, and a wonderful example of the best of the Philippine culture.

[@AZ_Bill]

Oh no! I’m so sorry.

[@shanep4]

My heart goes out to you, thank you for sharing to help others 🙏🙂

[@StephenMckenna-jc8cg]

Nice people always, finish last!!!! I'm so sorry it happened to you beautiful lady!!!!!!

[@user-sz5dt9ih7f]

I am so sorry for what happened to you. I am praying for you. You thought you were dealing with good people, but sometimes these things happen. God will take care of these people in His own time and hHs own way. He will also make a way for you as well. God bless!!!

[@danielkoerner6386]

So sorry to hear you got scammed, Rubeauti. You are honest and expect that others are, too. I've experienced much the same as you, but in business deals, not real estate. Romantic deception is even worse, because it can damage someone both financially and in the heart. I'm rooting for you to find your way through this mess, without it causing lasting damage to you.

[@cycledelic44]

I am so sorry to hear of your loss, this is terrible news. However,as a spiritually inclined person all of these things are working for your good. Dont worry, it will work out well for you. 🙏

[@devonmalcolm34]

Sad to hear it bad people lurk in all guises maybe get a solicitor to help you with any further ventures.

[@CaptainKremmen]

It's a shame there are 5 agents involved. That means it'll cost 5 times as much to get the refund beaten out of them.

[@EdwinCV-dh8qc]

Ruby,thanks for sharing your land scammer experience by doing so your saving alot of people from making the same mistake.Thank you for caring ❤God bless you.

[@davidmorrow6409]

I hope everything works out for you.❤

[@bobmoore5242]

I'm so sorry this happened. You are so nice and smart you don't deserve this bad treatment. That was a beautiful piece of property.

[@robertgranholm2055]

I am sorry to hear this. You are a good hearted woman, and they take advantage. May God give a solution.

[@GregoryGrimmer]

The only people who don't make losses is the ones who don't do anything. You are a smart girl, take the lesson and keep moving forward.

[@DR-cn4dk]

Live and learn. Have scams in USA too. Thank you for warning us and teaching us all

[@oscarguadarrama1270]

Im so sorry, hope you recover very soon

[@kiwioffgrid2437]

So sad to hear and sorry for you however thank you for sharing such important information. It's great that you have KZbin income so that that money can be replaced/re-earned.

[@Dutchy-1168]

Sorry to hear u you got scammed‼️🇨🇦 Seems like everyone today is trying to trick unsuspecting people!

[@AgeOfWrestling]

This situation sucks. Sorry about all of this. We've all been scammed before and you'll bounce back from this!

[@willdrob80]

A kind heart is always taken as a weakness, it boils me when I hear stories like this and when I get the same treatment. 😡 So sorry this happened to you, you deserve better.

[@richunggoy3960]

I'm sorry that happened to you. Hope you can get your money back or get a good piece of land. You are not stupid. I know others that has happened to. Don't be hard on yourself,it's a learning experience

[@gectob]

Hey Rebeauti, I’m really so sorry to hear about this terrible experience you’re going through. It shouldn’t have happened to you. You deserve better. But, don’t let it get you down. I know that’s easy to say and hard to do but you’ve got to push forward. Perhaps you will consider selling the current property to recoup some or all of your funds. Next time, I’d suggest you definitely consider using an attorney because as a buyer, we are emotionally attached and it can adversely affect our judgment. Keep your head up and continue to dream and implement your plan 😊. You’re Awesome BTW!!!
