[The publication states: "Refer to Section 7.4 (p. 95) for the instructions in filling up this item. This item also has "skip instructions" in CPH Form 3." This section is pasted from Common Household Questionnaire instructions, section 7.4]
Ask the respondent the question, "Is this lot (read the categories to him) by this household?".

This also includes house owners paying the land on installment basis or holders of certificate of land under the Land Reform Program or house/lot awardees of housing loan from PAGIBIG, SSS, GSIS or commercial banks.
2 Rented - There is a fixed amount paid by the occupant in cash or in kind.

4 Being occupied for free without consent of owner - The household occupies the lot without the consent or knowledge of the owner.
