I also have my own place there, at Mission Hills Subd. Just that its not a step away from the beach but a quiet and relaxing place as well.

    wow, what a great find at the beach. looks pretty good, lots of TLC needed. the upstairs roof might need some work, looks like some water seepage around the sides, but you can get that fixed. like you said, living at the beach will require periodic maintenance. water pressure is definitely important. nice to have a washing machine. the only bathroom you need to worry about is in your room. I see a lot of potential for that house. I hope you get it and it doesn't turn into a money pit. I'm rooting for ya.👍👍👍don't forget the a/c.

    There is nothing weird about Roxas city. By the mere fact that it is very spaced out and there is a lovely beach in Roxas city. Whereas in Manila,its so over populated and the houses and condos are so cramped up!! Both me and my husband love Roxas City. My husband hometown/ province is there. Plenty of space and the seafood is so cheap. When it becomes hectic and crazy in Manila, we go to Roxas to destress from all the madness from Manila😊
