Should I buy or rent a home in Davao?

"Bought a nice 2 bedroom home, but the title had liens dating back to 1965 so it was not conveyed. We have a lawyer working on that who will petition the court to expunge these encumbrances and issue a new clean title," wrote a member who made the move to Prudential Village, Daliao, Davao City, Philippines.
