Presidential Decree No. 1473

June 11, 1978

Case Overview and Summary

Summary of Presidential Decree No. 1473:

Cancellation of Titles and Reversion of Ownership to NHA for Housing Purposes
- Cancels transfer certificates of title (TCTs) of specified lot purchasers in Malaya-East Avenue Subdivision, Quezon City, and reverts ownership to National Housing Authority (NHA) for housing purposes. (Section 1)
- Allows cancellation and reversion of TCTs of any lot sold by NHA or its predecessor PHHC if buyer fails to construct a house within one year, subject to the following conditions: (Section 2)
    - Buyer is given at least 90 days' notice to comply or present valid reasons for non-compliance.
    - Buyer is paid compensation equal to the lower of the declared market value or the assessor's market value.
- NHA can take immediate possession of reverted lots but cannot demand issuance of new TCT until proof of full payment of compensation is shown. (Section 3)
- NHA is authorized to use or dispose of reacquired lots in accordance with its charter for housing purposes. (Section 4)

Background and Rationale
- State policy to provide housing for less fortunate citizens through government agencies like NHA (formerly PHHC).
- PHHC sold lots in Malaya-East Avenue Subdivision with condition that buyers construct houses within one year, or ownership reverts to PHHC.
- Some buyers violated this condition without valid reasons, defeating the housing objectives.
- Cancellation of titles and reversion to NHA aims to utilize the lots for housing purposes and solve acute housing shortage in Metro Manila.
