The Deed of Absolute Sale with Assumption of Mortgage is a specialized legal instrument used in Philippine real estate transactions where a property is sold while still subject to an existing mortgage. This document is particularly relevant when buyers prefer to take over existing mortgage arrangements rather than securing new financing. The deed must comply with various Philippine laws including the Civil Code, Property Registration Decree, and banking regulations. It details the property specifications, purchase price, outstanding mortgage balance, payment terms, and conditions for mortgage assumption. The document requires careful drafting to protect all parties' interests and typically needs approval from the mortgagee bank before execution. This type of deed is common in both residential and commercial property transactions in the Philippines, especially in cases where assuming the existing mortgage offers more favorable terms than new financing.
