Bakit maliit na bahay lang ipinatayo sa Pilipinas

[@mariakristelsantiago9740]

My husband and I are working as an ofw engineers in the UAE since 2008, got married in 2012, had kids then umuwe ng pinas in 2019. Then my husband had an offer here in Guam in 2019. Then sumunod kame and ever since nandito na kame as non immigrants and still waiting for our pr. We’ve invested a few properties in the PH while we were in the UAE and ang laki laki ng maintenance cost. So nagiging liability na siya so we’ve decided to rent it out. Dun nalang namen nababawi ung maintenance cost at while kaya pa namen magwork dito lang kame at pag magdecide na umuwe, dun na kame titira. Mas praktikal ang mas maliit na bahay.

[@bubutlopez1081]

Sa akin, no need for big house. We downsized here 3 years ago. All we need now is a safe and comfortable home. I learned to simplify.

[@melaniarequillo8580]

Kong ako ang mag pa bahay sa pinas, 2 bedrooms lang kong pwede 1 bedroom lang basta may sala at kusina at 1 bathroom. At gusto ko may malaking garden para mag tanim nang mga gulay.

[@ditasenriquez3990]

Ok lng yan kasi tatanda tayo hirap umakyat sa taas at madali linisin. Ang importante sakin may mabakante lupa para mapagtaniman. God bless

[@almacruz-ky9in]

Yes we areglorifying God by planting and growing greens . I i Like to plant to more trees which the earth needs right now

[@Livelifeandliving]

Ang malaking bahay hndi naman praktikal sa aking palagay po mas ok yung tama lang may 2 bedrooms toilet dining qnd sala

[@YollyFonsvlog]

Saan ka sa la union sissy ?

[@dendroprince]

I agree sa America din po they are known for downsizing when kids move away na from parent's house. a big house is not sustainable and practocal if (2) lang kayo titira.

[@josieherrera9017]

Sa tingin ko ikaw ay talagang magaling na nurse. Mayron kang foresight at niresearch mo pa bago nagplano ng bahay. Good job, NurseNora.

[@mharace2331]

Tama na yung bahay kubo basta masaya.Yan ang plano kong retirement home sa Pinas.

[@Etceteras82]

Tama ka po. Importante napapalibutan ng mga panananim, makakapaghayupan at higit sa lahat matatawag na iyo. Napakasarap pp tumira sa kubo. The simpliest is the best. At least for me. Though wala naman ako problema sa mga nangangarap ng mga mansyon o higit pa. Iba² din kasi tayo ng gusto. Important is we dont seek validation din of other's opinion. Sending hugs to you kabayan🤗

[@agnescurrie697]

Now na 60s ako hindi rin ako agree na yung mga immigrant magpapagawa ng bahay jan sa pilipinas na hindi nila titirhan to enjoy or to feel. Kaya yung kamag anak ko contradict ako kung sinasabing magpagawa ng bahay.

[@Livelifeandliving]

Sa akin kubo lang din pinatayo ko

[@NerissaEsguerra-b7p]

[@rizzajoywalker4761]

I have been watching your blog few days now. Because like you nagpapatayo din ako ng bahay sa Pinas for retirement purposes also. It has been ongoing 6 months now at by June of 2025 ang turn over. Like you I was also planning to hire local pandays with experience po kasi mas cheaper but then I had experience in the past noong pinatayuan ko ng bahay ang mother ko at grabe ang stress ko po dahil sa mga mali maling pagkagawa. Kaya ngayon kumuha talaga ako ng professional builders at ngayon ay less stress na ako although 10x higher naman ang contract but it is what it is..

[@AL-vw7kx]

To me.. pag uwi ko sa pilipinas it would a small modern house .. since my kids are grown up here in U.S. .. it would not be pratical for me have a big house! Iwould be living a minimalist .. maybe like a zen house! Good point on the age part by the way.. i'm in my mid 50's myself.. so basically it would be a small retirement home! Pero tama sa pag budgeting.. I would thought about it myself.. concrete lahat buong bahay.. everything that would save or spend less I would be using Solar panels for energy (electrical) have my own water tank!

[@SaralinMacy-i9b]

Mgandang idea u shared.mag pvc n din sa mga doors at cabinets.nkakairita ang anay.sisirain lhat..at magpa cemento n din ng bubong.tama ka nurseNora..pagaling ka lng dyan,sariwa hangin.may bukid kna,lgyan ng mga gulay na tanim pra less budget.di n need mamalengke. ..(

[@Etceteras82]

Hello po Ma'am. I am currently living in Europe din po. Pero for me kahit kubo ang ipapatayo ko someday alam ko may tataas talaga ng kilay. But for me who cares. I want to live the simpliest life and i dont mind din others opinion. And tama ka din iba² tayo ng purpose, priorities and kaligayahan. Pride? Dito lang yan sa mundo. Di natin lahat madadala sa hukay. Importante po maggiging safe and masaya lang tayo na walang maapakan na iba sa mga ginagawa natin. Sending hugs to you po. ( by the way, just came accross lang post sa channel nyo, found it interesting to watch👍)

Agree ako SA msliit na bahay,you just being practical,

[@8877jazz]

kumbaga sempling bahay lang ok na.

[@jodynacpil3404]

I have also a bungalow house Lang Kasi dead investment ang bahay,ang maintenance ay you have to change, repaint every 10 days. Mga Tao has expectations basta abroad, dapat malaki ang bahay...don't be influenced with what others say, important is you have money to enjoy at Di Ka nangungutang para ipagmayabang Lang. Malaki nga bahay mo pero pag retire mo from abroad anong means of income mo? Invest Stocks, land at pagawa Ka boarding house.

[@cristinacejudo1924]

Your new subscriber from Stockton,California. Tama ka anak hindi natin kailangan ng malaking bahay. One story 2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms mga 200 sq meters ok na sa akin.

[@evelyndelacruz6965]

Thank you Nurse Nora sa reason at advantage sa pag pagawa mo ng bungalow na bahay. We also watched your video kung bakit importanteng nan doon ka sa Pinas when building a house sa Pinas. I had a lot of discussions for 2 days with my husband.May kausap na kaming engineer at architect na may business sa Pinas. We have checked sa fb yung mga business project na nagawa nila. Hindi na sana muna kami uuwi we just want the Engineer to start the project in building our bungalow house kaya lang we probably would need to go home just to monitor yung progress ng bahay. The Engineer was referred to us by one of our relatives back home.

[@felicitascaimol]

[@Lucalyka]

Korek ka jan Nurse Nora, as we get older we need to be pragmatic. Simpleng bahay lang at low maintenanced lang. Senior citizen proofed dapat for easy mobilization and accessibility. Ako nga yunh mga door knobs ko pinalitan ko na din from usual round door knobs to lever type para madali buksan ng seniors esp pag may arthritis ka na di ba. Will also take some of your suggestions sa aking bahay. I admire your foresight into ageing comfortably. Thank you so much, Nurse Nora.

[@SimpleFilipinaOFW]

Me too maliit lng po sinadya lo talagang maliit bungalow para sa family ko especially sa.Mama ko tas d masyadong malaki gastos bungalow. Lalo ang Mama ko matanda na gusto.ko simple na bahay.

[@Punisher6010]

If you have no family in the Philippines wife and kids don’t build a big house for your self only simple and convenient more better as long na may bakante kang lupa na mag tanim at mag alaga ng hayop

Nagpatayo din ako ng bahay sa Tarlac, 2 bedroom's, 1 bath lang. Hindi na natin kailangan ng malaking bahay lalo na tumatanda na tayo (retired na ako). Bahay ko dito sa states, 4 bedrooms at 2 baths, hirap na rin maglinis. Ang mahalaga, may tutulugan ka at comfortable ka.

[@epomrankysvlog6442]

mgnda din may taas for other purposes for example kpg nag baha at least meron itaas mgnda din ang wlng hagdan pra kpg old age na dpt wlng hagdan tlga

[@Just_do_it123]

I built my bungalow house originally planned for 4MBR, in order to accommodate guests.. As it was laid out on the ground it looked real big. I decided and chopped it down into just 2BR. As years went by, during my vacations, I'm always preoccupied with guests. I ended up making extension for another room addition. There is to say, No plan is perfect. So glad of flexibility and able to adapt to whatever is needed. Same here I installed a double 36 inches wooden front door and all BR doors are 36inches wide even the bathrooms are all ADA (wheelchair) compliance. Having a house is a non stop maintenance. My passion, my hobby. Retired, DIY'er, Living Life. Just do it.😊
