How a pre-selling purchase is paid
The cash-flow sequence from reservation to turnover, set out before you commit to anything.
Reservation
A reservation fee holds your unit, floor and price. Ask for its refund rules, deadlines and required documents before paying.
Down payment through construction
The down payment is spread across the build in installments; the term and any interest depend on the developer. Compare the schedule against your income and savings before you sign.
Balance at turnover
The remaining balance falls due near turnover, through a bank, Pag-IBIG, in-house financing or cash. Confirm that timing before you sign. See the Cebu property financing guide.
| Stage | Typical share of contract price | When |
|---|---|---|
| Reservation fee | A fixed fee, credited to the down payment | At booking |
| Down payment | Commonly 10%–30%, spread over the build in installments | Across construction |
| Balance | The remaining 70%–90% | At/near turnover — bank, Pag-IBIG, or in-house |
Installment buyers are protected by the Maceda Law (RA 6552); see Buyer protection below.
Why some buyers reserve early
Developers often release a tower in phases, and later releases may be priced higher. An early reservation can also leave a wider choice of floor, view and layout. Neither is guaranteed, so weigh it against the delivery risk you can check below.
Buying off-plan is regulated: here is what protects you
Pre-selling projects in the Philippines are regulated. Ask us to walk you through the project documents and current terms before you reserve.
- DHSUD License to SellUnder PD 957, a developer may not sell units in a covered subdivision or condominium project before it holds a License to Sell. Ask for the license for the exact project and tower, and check it on DHSUD’s public list.
- Payments protected if the project fails (PD 957, Section 23)If a developer fails to develop the project according to the approved plans and within the time limit, installments paid are not forfeited after due notice, and the buyer may choose a refund of the total amount paid with legal interest.
- Maceda Law installment rights (RA 6552)With fewer than two years of installments paid, the grace period is at least 60 days. At two years or more, you earn one month of grace for every year paid and, on cancellation, a refund of at least 50% of the total paid, rising after five years to a maximum of 90%.
What to check before a reservation fee is paid
- The DHSUD License to Sell and project documentation for the exact tower.
- The developer’s track record, construction stage and turnover obligations.
- The payment schedule, financing timing, transfer costs and your cash-flow fit.
- The leasing and resale outlook for the exact address, not only the brochure.
- Written cancellation and refund terms.
If a development does not hold up to scrutiny, walk away. Past price behavior is not a guarantee of future value.

In pre-selling, the developer is the product
Off-plan value rests on one thing: the developer finishing what the brochure promises, on time and to standard. So start with the company behind the tower, not the render: its finished projects, its License to Sell and its turnover record.
We are the brokerage, not the developer.

Frequently asked questions
Can an OFW or foreign buyer purchase a pre-selling condo?
Often, subject to the project structure and statutory foreign-ownership limits. RA 4726 ties condominium ownership to the permitted ownership of the common areas; foreign interest cannot exceed the applicable legal limit. OFWs who remain Filipino citizens are not treated as foreign buyers. Ask your advisor to confirm the project structure and current availability before you reserve.
What happens if the project is delayed or not completed?
If a developer fails to develop the project according to the approved plans and completion period, PD 957 Section 23 can prevent forfeiture after the buyer gives due notice and allows the buyer to seek reimbursement of covered payments with legal interest. The remedy depends on the facts and contract, so obtain legal advice for a dispute.
What if I can’t keep up with the payments?
For covered installment sales, RA 6552 provides at least a 60-day grace period when fewer than two years of installments have been paid. At two years or more, earned grace time applies and a qualifying cancellation includes a cash surrender value starting at 50% of total payments. Notice, timing, and contract facts matter.
How do I know the developer is legitimate?
Ask for the exact project or tower License to Sell. Non-exempt subdivision and condominium projects need a DHSUD LTS before units may be marketed or sold. Check the project details against DHSUD’s guidance and public list; ask your advisor to show it to you before you pay.
Can I use Pag-IBIG or a bank loan for a pre-selling unit?
Often, yes — the balance at turnover may be financed through a bank, Pag-IBIG for eligible accredited projects, or developer terms. Approval, timing, and costs depend on the project and your qualification. Review the Cebu property financing guide, then confirm the live route and figures before committing.
What does Cebu Grand Realty charge me as the buyer?
Ask your advisor, in writing, whether any brokerage fee applies to you. Buyers may still owe reservation, financing, tax, registration, transfer and contract-specific charges, and your advisor should itemize those costs before you pay.
Weighing a pre-selling purchase?
Launch pricing, payment schedules and developer track records, reviewed with a Cebu Grand Realty advisor before you reserve.
