    Condos there are easy to buy, with relatively low monthly payments and even no down payment terms, which is the only way most could ever afford to purchase. However, hard to sell, as financing is not as accessible there and most cannot pay in cash, especially at the current over inflated prices. Add to that relatively low rental returns. The Phils. does not have a mature secondary market, so very different than in the UK. It is really hard to compete with the developers terms. Glad you can see the positives from when you lived there making yt content etc. which I enjoyed. Good luck!

    Do not feel bad, Lucy and George. Just make the price reasonable and it will soon be sold. Professionals from Makati will surely be interested with that property.
    Personally, I would not buy a condo in that area that's just 600m from the faultline, but despite that, so many wants a property on that part of Metro Manila. Best of Luck!

    For someone that is paying for a Condo in Pasig... and lives in the UK... this was a great video... but... OMG... you took soooooo long to get to the point... I almost fell asleep... get your doing a vlog...
    Wish the whole video was just on how you got the Condo... what the process is like... the location and size... and pros and cons... how much you got it for... how much your selling it for... did you make a profit... or not... think this subject deserve more of a focus... not bothered about Yogurt....
    Have some B roll of the Condo... never know might help you sell the Condo...
    Not sure your selling the Yogurt... agree with your misses that looked wrong...lol

    Low monthly payment but they don't tell you there's a big payment to be made at certain point in time. Also, it's hard to sell a condo here without a parking space. With the government phasing out POGOs, there will be a huge surplus of condos for rent. Condo prices will adjust down from over supply.

      One could rent a 2 bedroom at St. Moritz Private Estates for $1200 - $1500 per month depending on the furniture. So it makes makes zero sense to buy a resale at $500,000 unless one was going to live in it for the next 30 to 40 years.

    Real Estate investing. Buy a property Building, Condo, and House, not raw land in a good area. Never sell. Sit on it for the longest time to rent it. Again never sell unless you are willing to lose. If you buy and sell, be a real estate agent and don't buy properties for flipping.

      Are you even aware of Filipino law regarding land ownership? Foreign nationals cannot under any circumstances own land in the Philippines. Proposed land reforms meant that land was supposed to be owned by the people but it's mostly owned by politicians and corporations.

Just not to feel sad and not moaning coz of the weather I just look at the positive vibes that were still lucky compared to other country that experiencing flooding, not enough food, no NHS,. We also have bought in uptown PARKSUITES and we regret it so expensive. Am starting eating unhealthy food here like cheese sausages cakes biscuits chocolates that I can't get in Philippines.

    What you are seeing from your condo's balcony is not Laguna Lake but rather the Laguna de Ba-i or Lake of Ba-y (as Laguna is the Spanish word for "lake" which also is the name of the adjacent province). Ba-i or Ba-y (pronounced Bah-eeh) is a town along the lake shore of Laguna, hence the name the 'Lake of Ba-y' or Laguna de Ba-y.

    Mike from "Making it Happen" has been trying to sell his condo for 10 months. The problem is he is trying to make a big profit at 30 million PHP. He would be smart to ask for what he has invested in it and move on. I seems like everyone is trying to make a large profit off theses used condos but can not compete with what the developer of new construction can offer.

    You have a great investment. It's all about what you said earlier, selling it to a fair price! It takes patience to find the right buyer, but ROI will be worth the wait. Your target markets for your condo unit are the rich students, foreigners and Filipino's with a lavish lifestyle. I think you need another avenue for payment deal of the unit, because it could be a downer if the buyer is not familiar and not accustomed with new methods and prefer the old method of payments. Also, UK is beautiful. Keep vlogging.
