hi good morning. I just wanted to have a legal advice regarding sa lupa. My mother purchases this piece of land in front of our house many years ago but we cannot fence it because of our neighbors.
the story is like this and I hope you can leave me an advice.
This piece of land ay may tatlong heirs or tagapagmana. But due to some reasons, the lot was not divided into 3. it is still intact as a 1 parcel. now the 2 heirs ay nakapagpatayo na ng bahay nila doon at yung nabili namin is yung in between those 2 houses. Now po ang pinagpipilitan ng mga anak ng 2 heirs na may houses na doon is di namin pwedeng bilhin yung lupa na yun dahil may usapan daw sila pero wala naman pong mapakita na pumayag yung pang 3rd na heir na sa kanila ibebente kaya binenta nila yung parte nila sa mama ko. may deed of sale po ako na noong 2020 pa nagawa kaya lang di napanotary nung mga nagbenta. tapos yung seller already died last july 2021 po. ano po dapat gawin para matapos na po ang problema namin.
Good morning and Bless You..
