Great video EVAN! Buying a property in a foreign land can be very challenging. The process can be meandering as compared to acquiring here in the US, for instance. I've gathered, there are stories of scammers who pose as sellers, fixers etc. Buyers beware, and do their due diligence when in search for property ownership. I was wondering if you can make a video on how to buy in Pi. Thank you.

These subdivisions have existed for a very very long time now, we also have middle class neighborhoods, the only reason why foreigners aren't aware of these places is because you wouldn't be allowed in if you weren't invited by a homeowner. Another reason is because foreigners aren't allowed to purchase or own land in the Philippines, therefore you're not really the target market of these properties, as a foreigner you could only purchase a condominium unit. If you would like to stay in these large mansions, then your only option is to rent them.

I am Filipino by descent but 3rd generation American. Born & Raised in Hawaii and resided over 68 yrs in the U.S. My great grandfather & grandmother both came from the Philippines in the late 1800. (1897) As a result, I have taken a keen interest in observing the Filipinos and their history. The Filipinos have been provided with great Financial, economic and physical support from the U.S, China and Many other countries over their existence. Sadly, this may have taken away their Incentives to enhance their culture, improve their livestyle and attain pride in themselves. They have become followers and subservient especially to Caucasians, where they have surrendered themselves as inferior. Even with Education and Financial assistance from their relatives who work abroad, they do not and cannot improve themselves. The rich of that country (most of it gained illegally & from the working class) jealously guard their wealth and are afraid to Invest into their countrys' Government, Infrastructure and modernization. Money invested into gainful ventures (usually given by other countries) are stolen and kept by the rich. The country appears a little "modern" in a couple of their few large cities (Manila, Cebu City) Otherwise, its people still live like 3rd world Countries existence. No Retirements, Medical or Food assistance for the working class. Despite these shortcomings, the few that gain some financial stability are proud, "snooty" and ridiculously disgusting! Spain gave many of its good cultures and features. It also gave its bad inheritant nature. I have not bothered to speak or learn Tagalog or any dialects as was not taught to me. I placed my efforts in Japanese, Korean and Spanish. this has been incredibly helpful. Whenever a possible Honest Leader appears in the P.I. That person is quickly eliminated. Thank You great father and great grandmother for having the forsyth to set forth into another world and give generations a fighting chance!

If I had that much money I would rather build a home out in the province away from where I would always be getting lots of attention and get my own security for protection. Plus I could have more land for what I would have been paying for one of those homes in the places that you mentioned. Of course I would have a big fence going around the property. Anyway I live in a gated community with one way in and one way out with a guardhouse which is fine with me for where we have a home.

Little off in computation and conversion. You're assuming 1 sq m = 10 sq ft when it's actually 10.764. So, that P320,000/sq m is more like $5,946/10 sq ft., not $6,400/10 sq ft., assuming the exchange rate is P50 = $1. Just saying.

If I can add to this, you may also need to consider the homeowner's association fees which in some villages allegedly cost upwards to Php 100,000 a month. Then again if you're buying a 30 million peso home its probably just spare change to you 😂
