Example:
if A sells his property to B for P1,000,000.00,
the onerous cause for A is the P1,000,000.00
coming from B, whereas, that of B is the property
coming from A.
Remunatory contracts
the
cause is the service or benefit which is being
remunerated
Example:
a professional fee of an engineer who
pursuant to contract with a client prepares the
plan or design the latters residential house.
Gratuitous contracts
• or contracts of pure beneficence, the cause is the mere
liberality of the benefactor.
unlike in onerous and remunatory contracts where each
party receives a valuable or material consideration, in
gratuitous contracts the obligador does not receive any.
the liberality or cause in this case is the inner satisfaction
of the giver of having done or given a valuable factor or
help the receiving party.
Example:
donating a piece of land to a poor community
Motives in entering into a contract
• the particular motives of the parties in entering into a
contract are different from the cause. The motive is the
special or personal reason of a party why he entered into
contract.
Example:
A, a Visayan resident, is the owner of a 500
sq.m. residential lot in Tagaytay City. Without
knowing that the cost per sq.m. is P500.00, he
sold it to B at P300.00 per sq.m.
