The Residential Real Estate Sale Agreement is a crucial legal instrument used in the Philippines for transferring ownership of residential properties. This document is essential when selling or purchasing houses, condominiums, or other residential units, ensuring compliance with Philippine property laws and regulations. It incorporates mandatory provisions from the Civil Code of the Philippines, Presidential Decree No. 957 (Subdivision and Condominium Buyers' Protective Decree), and the Maceda Law (RA 6552), among others.
