My New Condo Tour Now Fully Furnished & What it Costs in 2023! 🇵🇭
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- In today’s video I show you just about everything I purchased to fully furnish my place. Most of the cost went to the two air conditioner units and the refrigerator. I still have not purchased a Microwave, Washer or Dryer, but the b1 level in the basement has a Laundromat Service, so I'm going to use that for a while.
For the items shown in this video, it's save to say I probably spent at least 111,000 Pesos ($2,000 USD), when renting in the US you generally don't buy your own appliances, which were about 60% of my costs.
The appliances make up most of the cost while most of the other common items are very affordable yet good quality.

I suggest you buy a big laundry basket where you can put your soiled clothes to organize your room
Justin, two comments:
1, Since you stated that you will be moving more often (you're only on a 6 month lease), if you wanted to, could you leave all that stuff there once you leave? Or must you take all that stuff with you (the AC units, fridge, bed, dresser, etc.)? As you, I too am planning to move around, change places every 6 months to yearly. I'd rather not drag all that stuff around, constantly, which is why my thought is to rent furnished place and live a more minimalist lifestyle, even tho I accept that it's bit more expensive in the end. And, as you said, with all the permits moving stuff back and forth is a hassle.
2. On the gym, why not just join a real gym (outside the condo)? They're under 3000 pisos anyway for far far superior quality.
Hey Jon,
1. It depends on the unit owner. Since this unit came unfinished I can aim to work out a deal with the owner to see if he would like to buy “some” or “all” of the items I have here upon my exit. If I didn’t care to sell them I’m sure he’d be glad to keep them for free, lol.
2. The answer is Time. External gyms are better but unless they are within close walking distance they can’t be justified really. Taking a grab back and forth is a no- for me.
@@itsJustinSpencer 1. Right. Suspect that you'll have to give them away. That, and most anything you get isn't worth anything after purchase. 2. Yes, it is important to live near a gym. Where I am in Tokyo, I live literally a block away from Gold's Gym. This was by design.
Are you settled there now? Do you do UA-cam full time?
@@charleseggebrecht6754 Do I do UA-cam ... Naaaaa. I've got a real job. :)
I like how this is realistic, over being aspirational... no need for x-deals and what not
He’s so gorgeous.
Nice Condo .. I think it’s a good size for 2 people
I think you need the help of an interior designer to avoid all those clutter and it would surely look amazingly organize and clean.
Actually lol Interior design is one of my skills, my gf and I are sorting out what to do with her excess items
Ahhh yes the backbone of any budget friendly condo... Hiring an interior designer
Hello Justin 👋 Congratulations 🎉 You got me very nice transition bro 📍 New friend here From Philippines Negros Oriental 🇵🇭

Hey Justine hang in there bro. Thanks for the info anyway. Believe it gets better, you're not alone as long as your girlfriend is by your side.🙂👍
Keep pushing forward and do not give up!
Always
Hi Justin, keep it up! Keep going and you’ll get there! Love your Vlogs!
You could probably help me one of these days Justin I would like to live in Manila one of these days. I am a Filipino citizen and can get help from my parents still but if you have any valuable information that can help me find a good place to stay in Manila then I just might contact you one of these days cool tour and office. I don't understand why you would need to reserve time at the gym if you live in an apartment or condo can't you just go in wherever it's open?
Nice place!
Wow! Nice condo! Good luck!
Guess, furnishing ur condo kept u buzy. Goid ti see ur vlog again. Hope to see more vlogs from u.
Great vid
Hey Justin is there a gym like gold's or other ones close by. I need to be near a real gym. What thing did u like at Lincoln. Is it hard to get groceries in a condo is there a s&r close or a landers close for bulk stuff 🤔
I wish, BGC is planned and laid out better to be able to walk to gyms and grocery stores. Lincoln gym is good though, but might not be enough for you. BGC has real gyms, there are gold gyms and anytime fitness chains here
Mandaue foam is nice right?! Good thing you know it already! Mergim on the other hand wont check out no matter how many times I say in the comment, or maybe he don’t read comments. Hoho.
Yeah I love it
in the philippines all you have to do is just be smart always double check and verify everything
Amazing
Love what you’ve done with the place! A couple of quick questions: did you have to buy a refrigerator because it did not come with one? Do the air conditioners have to be vented to outside air to work? Thank you.
Thanks, Yes and Yes
The view...
Buy a bench storage for ur entrance.it comesv in diff colors and sooo much sllllltorage but it's very stylish.ver discreet cuz UT looks like a furniture. Itbcab seat around 70.lbs. I have 2 long gray ones and 2 small purple and pink.
I think the com is called Sorbu in smazon.
Just saw some excellent quality ones today at Mandaue Foam for around $90. Great suggestion, thank you.
nice😍😎
Thanks for the info! How much is your rent only?
It was 25k php
Another great video. I plan on moving to the Philippines in January and I'm looking at Makati, so, I'm probably going to do a consult with you in the near future because you seem to really know that area well. I'm single, retired Army, so, I'm looking for a studio or small one bedroom(furnished), $500-700. Thank you.
Filipino managers are obsessed with filling out forms. So much red tape, it's annoying.
👍
I have a personal question for you sense you have been in that condo now for two months, what do you average in Electrical costs per month, if you do not mind me asking.
4k php ($75) but I run two window (inverter type) air cons almost every hour of the day
Justin lol it’s not a girl thing. Some women are messy and some are the opposite. 😜Maybe you need a hamper for her dirty clothes? Have you been to IKEA store here? They have affordable nice products and a good warranty on them. Thank goodness IKEA is here, lots of stores here only give out up to 1 year or even less warranties. When I lived in the States I didn’t go2 IKEA 😂 We have lots of furniture choices in the 🇺🇸 with good warranties. I don’t like Lazada and Shoppee 😂 I gave up on them! Good luck Justin hope everything works out good for you with the gym issues.
I know there's an S&R in BGC, that has all that stuff. At least you can see / feel the merch and make a decision that way. It's similar to the US Costco.
Correct, they also have a landers which is Also a wholesale warehouse like Costco.
Lol thanks Amalia 😉

The classic bra hanging on the door knob and clothes and accessories all around, what I'm irritated the most is the hair, there are literally hair everywhere. Lol.
