About These Values

These zonal values are published by BIR RDO 089 (Ormoc City, Leyte) and represent the minimum taxable value per square meter for properties in Merida.

When computing taxes, the BIR uses whichever is higher: the selling price/fair market value or the zonal value. These values are used for:

  • Capital Gains Tax (6%)
  • Documentary Stamp Tax (1.5%)
  • Transfer Tax (varies by LGU)

Market value is not a simple multiplier of the BIR zonal value. It varies by submarket, road access, frontage, lot shape, development, and recent comparable sales. For accurate market valuation, consult a PRC-licensed real estate appraiser or broker.

Data extracted from official BIR zonal value schedules. For official purposes, verify with BIR directly.

Last BIR schedule update for Merida: May 23, 2024. Under RA 12001 (RPVARA), BIR zonal values remain in force until replaced by an approved Schedule of Market Values for each LGU (Sec. 31). The law required SMVs to be updated within two years of its July 5, 2024 effectivity; where no approved SMV exists, the BIR continues to use existing zonal values or the transaction price, whichever is higher (Sec. 29). The real property tax amnesty on penalties, surcharges, and interest ends July 5, 2026 (Sec. 30).
