WHEN buying a property, it is prudent to heed the saying of American humorist and writer Mark Twain—“Buy land, they’re not making it anymore.”
Moving forward, owning a home motivates family members to work harder to maintain it for the long haul. Nevertheless, the process of owning a home is not a walk in the park, starting from finding the right property and securing a unit, to filing documents and making sure you have adequate financial resources to pay for it—the steps you need to go through can make you second-guess your decision to buy a home.
Nevertheless, Century Properties wants to tell the public it does not have to be ponderous when you are buying a home.
If one is interested in buying their dream Century Properties home, a prospective buyer can do it in eight steps which include a few other must-dos. It is going to be a hassle free experience as the company’s property specialist or sales agent is always there to lend a helping hand in every step of the way. You can get the keys to your space and be on your way to living your best life yet.
Take note of these key processes:
Step 1: Reserve and hold your unit
You can do this online then assess the payment term that works best for you.
Step 2: Booking
This involves generating the documents you need and submitting these together with one proof of income.
Step 3: Contract signing and authentication
Take note that there are three ways of authenticating your Contract to Sell (CTS) depending on where you are—notarization, consularization and apostille.
Step 4: Down payment and bank loan application
Pay your down payment or equity as indicated in your payment schedule. Payment period is different for ready-for-occupancy and pre-selling units.
Step 5: Bank loan approval
Sign your bank home loan documents and pay your bank fees.
Step 6: Loan release
Once the bank releases the payment to Century Properties, your account will be qualified to the most exciting step.
Step 7: Turnover and move in
Your account will be endorsed to the Turnover Group (TOG). Make sure you accomplish unit inspection and punch listing.
Step 8: Title transfer
The last step is important as it involves the processing of the title under your name and tax declaration.
