Dear PAO,I have been residing in a 400-square-meter residential lot in our municipality. Can I apply a title for this lot, considering that I have been staying here for almost 15 years? Thus, you may secure a free patent title of your residential lot as long as you comply with the requirements of Section 3 as above stated. This opinion is solely based on the facts you have narrated and our appreciation of the same. Editor’s note: Dear PAO is a daily column of the Public Attorney’s Office.
