House and Big Lot for Sale on Bacong/Dumaguete Border - Quiet, Cool and Breezy FTW, 1 of 2

[@randypelc5608]

This is a beautiful home. Congratulations to the designer, builder and owner.

[@patburns1914]

I'd be careful about spending large amounts of money on a house & land because of the law stating foreigners can not own land in the Phils, I know there are ways to get around that but still if things don't go as planned ( as we know happens often in the Philippines ) its could be an expensive lesson . Much better to rent....cheaper, more options, less up front money and if for some reason things go south you just up and leave.

[@HeavyDemir]

yeah I was thinking the same, furthermore he say "he" is moving back to the states, not them as in a couple so who own the land, cos it is not the seller. So the land may be on a lease, that is maybe 25 years coming to a close .. so many questions interested buyers need to ask :)

[@thehammer3340]

You're 100% correct. 2 things a FOREIGNER should NEVER do in the Philippines 1) start a business 2) build a house. Shouldn't need explaining.

[@redbrown942]

@@thehammer3340 The most common reason foreigners get murdered in the Phils is over real estate and cheating on their wives. Good luck. I prefer to live in a lawful society and just visit if I want access to cheap women.

[@heww3960]

I agree, never buy something you can not own. Asian goverments overall are pretty racist to foreigners. They sure love taking the money, but do not want to give anything in return. It is smart, but it is still racism.

We searched for house and lot around Bacong area last year. Be careful which part of Bacong you want to buy or rent because the New Airport they plan to build is around Bacong area.

[@lorenzomagazzeni5425]

So what ? A new airport will drive the prices UP.

[@lindacruz2866]

Most of the people said it might. But, if the property is close to the airport with all the noise of plane coming in, then most probably prices will go down. Base on our experience, property we searched around Bacong area close to the planned the airport, property prices went down.

[@rogerwill3775]

Love the open concept to get the outdoor feel since in Canada that is not an option. He put a lot of thought and extra expense into designing his custom house. Thanks for sharing this unique house Ned.

[@Dapper_Dean]

Wow, I'm still tripping about the electric charged steel grill walls. Lol! But a good peace of mind accessory to have. Nice house and lot though. So many accessories to ease life there. From the water tank and well, the internet antenna, the emergency generator, the solar power to run lights and the cctv, the thorny bushes, the safe, etc.

[@kenbradley1100]

Yeah...makes one think, just how safe of an area is it? Do I really want too live there?

[@gman5986]

I like the open feel but doesn't seem practical allowing mosquitoes,bugs,snakes,rodents,etc. being able to come into your home and of course you cannot use Air Conditioning unless you lock yourself into a room. Getting custom made Sliding Doors to fit those non standard openings would be expensive but doable. Problem I see is that because of the large issue with poverty in many of the rural areas you can expect break ins on a regular basis. Thats why he built it like a fortress. I would imagine after awhile the feeling of being unsafe there would wear on most people. I better like James over at "My PI Dream" idea with "Villa Feliz" in a private gated community but of course at a higher cost but very nicely designed community with security guards, laws and rules to protect those residents and keep all the properties looking nice with no garbage and crazy karaoke music blasting away.

Hi, Ned. Did he mention why he is coming back to America?

[@craiggilleland]

10 Million is a lot of money in Bacong especially since the house is not on the beach. Personally, I'd never buy any property in the Philippines until the Oligarchs allow foreign ownership of the land. Even with a land title nothing is guaranteed in a country ripe with corruption and a kangaroo court system.

[@paulzaher4645]

There are plenty of horror stories of foreigners losing it all, better to rent....

@@markg999 Just like everyone else, with a Filipina spouse or by paying a Filipino to use their name. Regarding paying a Filipino to use their name, I heard stories that they will then have the Filipino's family member(s) work in China (as in OFW) and if the Filipino tries to take the property as their own, they keep the OFW in China as sort of like a "Hostage". Anyways, the Chinese are really good at finding and exploiting loopholes, so they could be using other methods unknown to us.

His security measures are a personal touch. Dumaguete and surrounding areas are very safe for expats.
