No. 6657, as amended, provides that “Upon the effectivity of this Act, any sale, disposition, lease, management, contract or transfer of possession of private lands executed by the original landowner in violation of this Act shall be null and void: Provided, however, That those executed prior to this Act shall be valid only when registered with the Register of Deeds within a period of three (3) months after the effectivity of this Act. Thereafter, all Registers of Deeds shall inform the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) within thirty (30) days of any transaction involving agricultural lands in excess of five (5) hectares.” Land Registration Authority (LRA) Consulta No. 1875 provides that "failure to register a deed of sale executed before June 15, 1988 on or before September 13, 1988 or within three (3) months from the effectivity of R.A.

No. 6657, as amended, likewise provides that “The sale or disposition of agricultural lands retained by a landowner as a consequence of Section 6 hereof shall be valid as long as the total landholdings that shall be owned by the transferee thereof inclusive of the land to be acquired shall not exceed the landholding ceiling provided for in this Act. Any sale or disposition of agricultural lands after the effectivity of this Act found to be contrary to the provisions hereof shall be null and void.

The Register of Deeds shall not register the transfer of any agricultural land without the submission of this sworn statement together with proof of service of copy thereof to the BARC.” However, Section 4 of R.A.
