purchasiing and investing in Philippine real estate is for the Foreign national and or
foreign corporation to create estate assets.
Different types of corporations have different rules, regulations, and minimum
capital funding requirements. Typical incorporations to hold Philippine real estate
may be a "General Real Estate" or "Trading or Marketing Company" or something
similar to be able to buy, hold and sell Philippine real estate property. Corporations
can be formed to conduct business in the Philippines as well. The first step to
forming a Philippine Corporation is having Philippine incorporation partners you
can trust to be team players with you in your Philippine investment plans. Many
times the Philippine incorporators will be Philippine family, relatives, friends,
business associates whom the foreign national can trust to be a part of the
Philippine corporation. With additional separate legal enforceable agreements
such as a power of attorney and other types of agreements, Philippine
incorporators become silient partners and team players with foreign investor
partners wishing to make Philippine investments without having their investments
