More than a third of Planetario’s clients are based abroad. Some are in Dubai, Singapore, or Qatar; others are on cargo ships or working seasonal contracts in Europe. What they share is the goal of putting their savings into something real — land or a home back in the Philippines — without the luxury of flying back for every document signing.
The good news: a Philippine property purchase can be completed almost entirely remotely. The tool that makes this possible is the Special Power of Attorney (SPA). A notarized and authenticated SPA — processed at the Philippine Consulate in your host country — authorizes a trusted person (a family member, lawyer, or your broker) to sign on your behalf at every stage of the transaction.
What you will need: a valid Philippine ID or passport, the SPA form (your broker can draft this), consular authentication, and a Philippine bank account or an arrangement with your authorized representative to handle fund transfers. Our documentation team has processed remote transactions from twelve countries — we know every consulate’s requirements.
The one step that benefits from your physical presence is the final title pickup — but even that can be delegated. Several of our OFW buyers have never set foot in the Registry of Deeds and still hold clean, registered titles in their name.
