Aboitizland: Ethical or Not?

[INFRACTION]

---

nice topic... i too like the exchange of views

in my humble opinion:

on the Aboitizland side: pag tsur oi sa mga lot price oi! Before selling the lot to the interested clients MAKE SURE that there are no discrepancies on the parcel size and price. There should be a rule regarding on the discrepancies on the middle of Client's process of paying for the lot. The company should be considerate enough since they are not the only customer in this world, there are other possible parties interested on that lot. ) In short, they should give a full refund, dapat I let go ng Aboitizland, kung ayaw nila (Rance's friend) edi huwag sa mga new prices na ipinapursue namin.

for Rance's friend:
Before purchasing lots, don't rely mostly on bronchures, have it confirmed by another realible land accessor. There is a slight chance that what's indicated in the bronchure is not the right one since they are prone to typographical errors. Read the written contract, I mean the whole page, after reading so have it discussed with a lawyer and ask question's about possibilities and problems might arise in buying a lot.

I would recommend Rance's friend to find a lawyer and attempt a final negotiation to the higher ranking official of Aboitizland if dili madala sa CSM. If not, go for final complaint to give a full refund and file for the cancellation of contract.

joke suggestion ipa Super Bobby ba na or ipa Imbestigador or ipa XXX o di ba ipa Isumbong mo kai Tulfo na. )

They had a discussion with their lawyer and their opinion was that my friend cannot get the money if they will not pursue the contract because Aboitizland is already going to enforce the new offer. Although, they could insist in their interpretation, the litigation expenses plus the time would not be worth it.

There are a lot of feedback that rest of the folks here either in favor or not.. but for my friend they just leave it for the others to make their own opinion.. in fact they are moving to the states already so sayang for them.. I got a latest news that Aboitizland middle managers were all replaced including Ms. Tortoro I dunno if I spell it right basta I think she/he was the Customer Service manager that time that sux up the image of the aboitiz and there is a new VP now hopefully they can make more money out of it.. I think they are trying to make an offer to my friend but again its too late for them. Thank you for your views and opinions.

a, di na na maayo.

[Rance]

Yeah.. no more updates on this topic but it looks like Aboitizland is still making money.. I'm not sure how they are managing the customer service dept now..

adto na lang sa VillaRaya, pareho ra ug view sa Kishanta, same lot sizes too. Makita pud nimo ang Kishanta from there.

Hmm... This sort of things happen as much as any developer would want to avoid it. Here in Ayala Land this is what we do:

1. If the price difference is minimal, say 50k or less. We absorb it, with management's approval. After all it's our fault.

2. If the price difference is significant, we inform the buyer of our mistake. We give him two options: Pay the higher price or move to a different unit (with the same lot cut as was originally declared.)

Worse comes to worst, we will refund the purchase if both parties do not reach an amenable agreement.

unfair business practice ni pero it really depend on what ur friend signed. Next time make sure of what you have signed. Get yourself familiar with real estate docs.

[Rance]

Yeah.. this can be a good case example for business students to argue, deliberate on the subject of Ethics and Law.

Suggestion Bro. Next time buy Ayala Land Development as what dothe 102 explained.
