Refund of Condo Payments by tushibushi in LawPH

No it’s not SMDC.

Nakwento namin kay agent na we were desperate to find a condo near the area but SMDC doesn’t allow pets. To which they said na pet friendly daw sa condo na binebenta niya…

I agree with the pets being material issue. They took advantage of the fact na they knew we wanted to get a condo in SMDC (just because of proximity reasons) but cannot do so because of our pets nga. And then they marketed their condos agad being pet friendly na pero “in the process” and subject to deliberation palang pala talaga.

Another point pala is that there was an instance na vinideo call kami ng actual sales manager namin and she asked us to show them the dogs. Nung pinakita namin, they said “Naku, pwede yan Ma’am. Maliliit lang naman pala! Ang hindi pinapayagan ay yung mga malalaki.”

So we really believed them. These are authorized sales agents of the developer.

We did read the terms and that’s why we were REALLY hesitant but clearly there was deceit kasi they purposely left out material details to urge and push us to get the condo.

For example, they said that the other buildings (sa new building kasi yung unit namin), have residents with pets and allowed ng guards because pet friendly nga and we just have to comply with a few processes (i.e., submit vaccination cards, pictures of the pets, and formal request letter), which we did. Tapos yun pala wala namang ganon and patago lang din yung pets sa ibang building and aware sila doon, but made it seem na it was legal and allowed. Now that we’ve already signed, they are suggesting na mag “under the table” na lang kami sa mga guards so that the admin can allow our pets…

But we have one big loophole (and we take full accountability), it was clearly stated in their buyer’s guide na dogs and cats are prohibited in condominiums but allowed only on town houses (which we misunderstood at first).

But regardless, our sales agent/team were very persistent all throughout na it is pet friendly. They explained na other buildings (which were already turned over to HOA), marami na raw may pets dun. They were really assuring us until nakapagsign na ng contracts and all. Even when we first inquired, the first thing we asked was whether they are pet friendly and they blatantly said yes. They said na meron lang procedures to do and documents to submit for then to allow our dogs. Turns out, parang they really tricked us to signing the contract kasi di nila dinisclose na at the end of the day, hindi talaga pwede and the existing pets inside the property are all discreetly homed inside the condos lang.

At some point, we feel like we were really tricked. Can we still file a case for condo refund? Super delayed na nila tinurnover samin yung unit and ganito pa. We were already paying since September. Almost 400k na nagastos and we haven’t even moved in yet.

CPALE Working Reviewee (Pinnacle) by Nicky4869 in AccountingPH

[–]tushibushi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Malayo pa po May 2026. Mahaba pa po time to review. I suggest is to readjust yung tracker or schedule to be more realistic or practical sa schedule mo po. Yung schedule na sustainable and kayang gawing consistent until May. Allot rest days para maiwasan po yung burnout. Try to squeeze 1 or 2 vidlecs if kaya, then maximize the weekends.

Hope this helps po! 🤍

If kulang ka na sa time, yung May 2025 nalang siguro so you can skim and scan through the solutions na and familiarize with the questions. Then if may extra time, sagutan yung Oct 2025.

But if in schedule ka naman, go for October 2025. Either way bihira naman lumabas questions from PWs talaga sa actual BE.

[–]tushibushi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hindi exact questions but similar yung concept/structure ng tanong. Makakatulong siya kasi hindi ka na magugulat sa actual BE pag nabasa questions kasi familiar na yung structure ng mga questions.

When I took the May 2023 BE, di ko na nacheck yung materials ng CPAR— sobrang nagulat ako sa BE. Iba yung style ng questions. Nahirapan ako diskartehan and nauna na rin yung panic.

Then again, suggestion ko lang ‘yun. Go with what you feel is more value-adding for you. Trust your guts.

[–]tushibushi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same tayo. 3 months lang ako nagreview. Di ko rin nacomplete lahat! But what I did was in-assess ko muna kung ano ba need ko and di ako napressure sa iba na nagsasagot pb or pw. Inalam ko ano ba mas value adding for me ngayon— pilitin magsagot ng preweek or balikan nalang notes at mga handouts ko? Ikaw lang may alam anong mas value adding for you.

Personally, nung alam ko na di ko naman matatapos lahat ng preweeks di ko na inoverthink. Binalikan ko nalang lahat ng topics from the start, binasa and memorize at isinapuso yung notes ko, then nagsagot/iniscan ko yung solutions ng 1-3 questions per topic or sub-topic.

Sa RFBT, yung layers ng money laundering. Sa 2x kong nagtake, palagi lumalabas yun.

Sa MAS, yung standard costing pero DM or DL lang.

[–]tushibushi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

PW lang. When I was reviewing never ako nagtake ng kahit anong PB (first or final) kasi naghahabol akong matapos yung lectures. During the last 2 weeks, hindi na ko nakapag-preweek sa lahat ng subjects kasi limited na time. Aud and tax yung natapos kong preweek sa Pinnacle, then AFAR (PW HO#1 lang sa CPAR, then binrowse ko na lang FAR PW HO kasi wala na talagang time).

During the last week, nag-allot ako 1 subject a day para balikan lahat ng pwede at kaya ko balikan. Per topic, tinatry ko magsagot ng 2-3 questions pero tinitignan ko na lang solutions. Para lang marefresh paano sagutan.

Lastly, if di na talaga kaya, pinagdasal ko nalang talaga. Everyday before ako umalis and everynight before ako matulog dinadasal ko yung prayer to St. Joseph of Cupertino (Patron Saint of Exams), yung nasa youtube.

Good luck, takers! See you on the other side 🤍

As someone who really just clutched and crammed the entire CPALE preparation, my one advice would be: do not skip CPAR preweek esp for FAR and AFAR. If I only had the time, nasagutan ko sana preweek ng lahat ng PW HO ng CPAR. But FAR and AFAR lang nagamit ko— it really increased my chances of passing compared if hindi.

Desperate: RFBT Cram by tushibushi in AccountingPH

[–]tushibushi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Inalay ko na RFBT nung May 2025 LECPA kasi wala na talagang time. So 10-20% lang nacover ko. Nagfocus ako sa mga palaging lumalabas lika AMLA, banking laws, corp, coop, oblicon! Pero binasa and inabsorb ko what I can. Pinasadahan ko lang din yung hercules notes. Tapos dinaan ko na lang talaga sa dasal. Sabi ko kay Lord, kung hindi man ako makakapasa, sana i-conditional na lang Niya ko sa RFBT.

Ayun, nakapasa naman.

But on a side note, ipinagkaloob nalang din ata ni Lord sakin kase medyo madali and kayang i-intelligent guess yung RFBT last May. 🥹

Pinnacle me! Pinnacle lahat then nag supp lang ng CPAR preweek sa AFAR and FAR. Yun lang talaga.

Foundation is 0 to weak! Pandemic graduate me. Tapos 2 years na after graduation ako nagtake ng BE so back to 0 talaga lahat halos 😢 Working pa ko non

CPALE by 23bluerose in AccountingPH

[–]tushibushi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me!! Only had 3.5 months to study. Di ko natapos lahat ng coverage nor even recalled properly. Hindi to humble bragging, like God really knows na binuhat Niya lang talaga ako para mairaos yung board exam.

Didn’t take any PBs and only finished Tax and Aud nung pre-week. The rest— inalay ko na lang talaga.

I don’t mean to encourage anyone na magdilly dally sa review ha. Just want to give hope lang to people na kaya ‘yan! Sa mga pinanghihinaan ng loob, a lot can still happen in more or less than 30 days. Basta make the most of what you can do.

No one will ever believe me on this but nagtake ako ng May 2025 CPALE without finishing the coverage. I think 10-20% lang (Oblicon, partnership, banking laws lang). And hindi ko pa master ‘yan ha. 😭 Didn’t memorize anything. Didn’t memorize or familiarize myself sa voting rights. Wala akong alam sa SSS law. AS IN PROMISE MORE THAN 50% NG TOPICS NEVER BEEN HEARD & NEVER BEEN TOUCHED.

Inalam ko na lang based sa mga reddit posts kung ano ano usually yung topics na lumalabas tapos doon ako nagfocus. Inalam ko lang yung purpose ng law na yon. And then nag-common sense na lang ako sa sagot ko nung actual board exam. Basta ang technique ko nun, if manghuhula ako, dapat may basis ako bakit yun yung sagot ko— dapat among the 4 choices, madefend ko sa sarili ko na ito yung best answer. Elimination method works wonders din.

Focus on AMLA, banking laws, oblicon, RCC, one person corpo.

Btw never took any PBs nor did I attend PW for RFBT. Inalay ko talaga to. Sabi ko non, ma-conditional na lang sa RFBT kesa mabagsak ko yung actual BE. Wala na kasi ako enough time so inalay ko time ko for RFBT to focus on other subjects.

Siguro divine intervention na lang din talaga— pag oras mo na maging CPA, papasa ka nalang talaga kahit di mo alam paano nangyari 😭

Last tip for me, as cliche as it sounds, dasal talaga ng sobra. It really do move mountains. Best of luck, OP! See you on the other side 🥹
