Experience buying a condo

8 years ago
I recently bought a condo in Manila and my real estate agent told me I will be getting my Deed or Title or whatever they call it in about 4 months at the latest. I finally got it in the mail in my country after 12 months. I forgot all about it until they sent it to me. Is this normal to wait one year? What if I wanted to sell it in 9 months? I'm sure I would have followed up on it after 4 months if I remembered. Im also sure it would'nt be a pleasant experience. They also sent me a statement showing an overage in my favor due to the deposit and the conversion rate at the time. I sent numerous e-mails trying to get my money back but all I get is the run around and passing the buck to another dept. I was looking to buy another condo in the future but after this experience, maybe not.
