delayed transfer of ownership

[okey]

we are planning to buy a used vehicle.. but the seller(some government employee) said the transfer of ownership needs to be delayed because there is something about laws here in the philippines which prohibits immediate transfer.

is it okay to deal with this type of arrangement? what or why does it need to be delayed? what should I be cautious about?

I hope someone could help me about this inquiry. God Bless all.

Yep, there is no such law exist. Neither carnap vehicle yan or the vehicle us bound to be reposes by the lending bank

Tell the seller he's an idiot.

The longest I get to have the unit transferred to my name was two weeks, and that's because of the moron newbies from TMG. We end up going to crime lab just to convince them, ayun pinagalitan ng mga taga crime lab yung mga bagito ng TMG.

Hanap ka na lang ng ibang unit.

Get out of the deal. Sure something fishy behind this.

You're being fooled!

may naecounter na ako ganyan before but the scenario is the car that i was trying to buy was a company car that was awarded to their employees via bidding. may clause sa sec cert na hindi pwede ibenta ng nanalo na employee yun car for a year but its a CLAUSE not a LAW

[lukscudkil]

but if you dont know the seller personally. try to look for something else

You can save yourself a lot of worries and troubles if you just look for another unit.

a consul! the price and condition of the car must be very tempting! after all, the embassy is practically getting rid of it! and it probably will save more money if it sells it here at any price compared to shipping it back to the home country.. and it will not allow the discarded car to occupy parking space in its grounds.. you might be talking about this embassy car that was purchased locally without having to pay certain taxes, or the car was imported tax-free. what that means is, a buyer without this tax-free privilege might end up having to pay these taxes when he buys the "tax-free" vehicle.
and this "waiting period" is certainly not philippine law. mebbe it's his bosses' (the foreigner's) law. or mebbe it's the time needed by your "seller" to transfer the car's ownership to him..
one thing i learned.. never buy cars from the government.. any government! too many potential problems..
maybe you should just sit this out. who knows, your patience might be rewarded by an even better buy in the near future..

[okey]

Yes its very tempting..the seller is a consul by the way.. Maybe its a mandate for them, not to sell acquired cars for certain period? Or a clause as lukscudkil have said? Anyone knows a consul and could back up, regarding selling cars??

Have looked at the papers and everything.. Just the transfer of ownership needs to be after 6 months to a year. Would you still suggest otherwise?

Was thinking of making an open contract for my/our protection also, would it suffice legally??
Thanks for your warm replies.
