How to prevent being scammed by a real-estate developer, broker, agent

Due to our exposé regarding the flooding at Lancaster Estates which can be seen at this webpage, a lot of people have been sending us the same emails requesting us tips on how not to get scammed by real estate developers, its brokers and their agents. We are no expert regarding the scams they make but we can however help our readers by listing up some of our experiences with our village's real-estate developer, Pro-Friends, and how it could have saved us from never-ending headaches if we only knew what was about to befall us before we have signed that cursed Contract-to-sell.

Tricycle no longer allowed in Lancaster Residences

Free Shuttle at Lancaster Estates for Homeowners' Convenience? Think Again.

In a bid by Lancaster Estates Homeowners Association (LEHOA) which is being managed by the developer - employees of Property Company of Friends, Inc. (Pro-Friends) without homeowner involvement nor consultation; tricycles are no longer allowed to enter our village starting Friday the 13th of September this year.

What does this mean to the homeowners?
Aside from the expensive tricycle (P50 one-way) even if it is only about 3 kilometers away from their Kalayaan terminal, we still need to pay P5 to the supplied shuttle of Pro-Friends inside the subdivision. That means that from the previous P50 that we pay, we now need to pay P55 to cover only 3 kilometers of road. More expensive than a metered taxi. And if you have heavy things to bring, you still need to get off from the trike and ride anew to the shuttle inside the village.

What does this have for Pro-Friends?
More collections through monopoly of transport.
