When is a broker entitled to a commission, and what happens when the owner closes the deal without you? That is the question this eBook answers.

It is a practical guide to the procuring cause doctrine, written by a practitioner for practitioners. It is not a case digest. It is built around three things every broker and salesperson eventually needs: how to prevent a commission dispute, how to tell whether you have a claim, and how to prove it.

Grounded in Philippine real estate law and Supreme Court jurisprudence, including the 2023 ruling in Bayanin v. PNB, it gives you the listing agreement clauses that protect your claim, the documentation habits that build your case before any dispute starts, the red flags that predict a fight, a five-question diagnostic, a 72-hour evidence checklist, an annotated demand letter, and a guide to where and when to escalate.

This eBook is a companion to The Practice of Real Estate Brokerage in the Philippines, which treats the doctrine in Chapter 4 and the rest of the practice in depth. It is a guide, not a substitute for legal advice on your own dispute.

Included with your purchase: The Commission Protection Toolkit, five editable Word files for use in your own practice: the Demand Letter Kit, the 72-Hour Evidence Checklist, the Listing Agreement Clause Pack, the Claim Diagnostic Scorecard, and the Procuring Cause File and Activity Log.
