Fake buyers, don't use us to view houses just to impress your Filipina girlfriend. Also, to our local & abroad buyers, please remind your family members/friends who act as your representative not to ask for a share for our professional fees. That's very unprofessional! If you wanna take a look at the property, please communicate with us first or the least, allow your representative to give to us your contact information so we can verify. For security purposes, we will not show the properties to your reps if that's not followed. Finally, if you wanna view houses, makes sure you are ready to buy it if you like it. There's much difference between VIEWING and be entertained for the sake of LOOKING than viewing for the sake of BUYING. We are sick and tired of being nice.

No, we don't give rebates to buyers nor allow buyers or any of his/her relatives to split our Professional Fees. That proposal is the most disgusting proposal we can ever think of. In the Philippines, everybody can be a real estate agent - a maid, an Engineer, Doctor, Lawyers or even government officials or bank managers. Everybody knows this is illegal! Only licensed real estate broker can do real estate marketing business in the Philippines. What happen if a Realtor® caught pretending to be a lawyer or a doctor? He will spend 10 to 15 years in prison for illegal practice of profession. Nevertheless, we give referral fees to whoever can refer a client to Garces Realty office & the rates shall vary depending on the extent of participation. If a buyer want a split of our Professional Fees, how about if in 3 months time, we will also split his salary or income? Also, to give additional idea, the pricing & payment terms in almost all developers in Cebu is still the same whether a buyer have or don't have real estate agents. It is disadvantageous to think that once a buyer omits the agent, he can negotiate more to the developer - that will not follow. A buyer shall gain nothing but loose something - the same price & scheme but looses a good service which can be extended FREE of charge by the agent. Aside from that, a prospective buyer will also gain nemesis out of that process.

Our valued clients, we valued your time as much as we valued our time. We don't intend to trip you if you are not yet decided to buy even when you are certain about the property type you are looking for & or even you like the property we are presenting. We bring you to the site because we believe you will purchase the property if it meets your specification. We maintain our policy "No buy, No tripping".  If you wish to just roam around and want to know more about Cebu, you may hire a Tour guide. Additionally, we can't trip you if your time frame to buy is 3months, 6months, next year or next few years from now as it would be useless since property status and updates are no longer the same by that time. We trip REAL decided, interested outright buyers only! Finally, we don't trip your relatives if you don't keep in touch with us FIRST. Relatives sometimes became our competitor and sometimes, keep your money or contact other real estate agent and ask for commission which is very degrading to our business. We need your cooperation on this matter. Read More..  

For owners and buyers, yes we charge 10,000.00 pesos for Title processing, in addition to the standard government regulated taxes and registration fees. The fact is, FREE service is always worth what it is, but GOOD service is always never free. We can't sustain excellent service for free. The lining, the stress and the time dealing with some government offices is more tedious than our scope of work. For the benifit of everyone, our services is only limited to finding able and interested buyer, then creating a sound business environment to derive meeting of the minds between all parties. Finally, contract signing.

We are base in Cebu as contrary to what some unscrupulous individuals are telling to our buyers that there is no Garces Realty in Cebu or in the Philppines. Click our Business Address here!. Secondly, there are other agents claiming they are part of Garces Realty even if they are not. If you are an owner selling your property or an interested buyer/investor, always ask the agent their Identification Card showing they belong to Garces Realty.
