Can Foreigners own properties though forming a corporation? Yes, preferred as well by Foreign investors, but would be too tasky and time consuming, plus you will have to form with Filipino partners with the sharing of 40% foreign and 60% Filipino funding capital.

If you are married to a Filipina and have kids, some Foreigners put the property in their kids name. (But, you cannot easily sell the property unless your kid reaches the age of 18 years old). If you sell before the kid is 18years old, it can be done but would be a long process. Inherit the land if your Spouse dies:This simply means, when your Filipina wife dies, you as the compulsory heir, together with your children if you have any, will become the legal owners of her property.

In the Philippines, the law provides that capital gains tax and all other real estate taxes against the property shall be for the account of the SELLER up to the date of the execution of the Deed of Absolute Sale. On the other hand, the documentary stamps tax, registration fees and expenses for the transfer of title in name of the BUYER shall be for the account of the BUYER..
