When Lino Estopin died intestate, his widow, Victoriana Lagata, executed a Deed of Absolute Sale[4] on November 11, 1961 over the agricultural portion of Lot No. 3347, which had an area of 15,906 square meters, more or less, in favor of Astrologo Hular, married to Lorenza Hular. Shortly thereafter, on November 25, 1961, Lagata executed a Deed of Absolute Sale[5] over the residential portion of the property with an area of 287 square meters, including the house constructed thereon, in favor of Hular. Hular and his family, including his son, the respondent, then resided in the property. In 1961 or thereabouts, Iluminado asked Hular's permission to construct a house on a portion of Lot No. 3347 near the road, and the latter agreed. In 1977, Lorenza Hular, wife of Astrologo, declared the residential land in the latter's name under Tax Declaration No. 6841.[6] |
