Money goes so far in the Philippines! I enjoy taking my whole wife’s family of 16 to a fancy over the water dinner for around $100 US, then we built our house there for 60K and now building our small beach hotel there in Cagayan De Oro City for around $200K. Money goes far there. The hotel name is……Ohana Beach Suites
Hmmm... I agree that your money goes so far here... But, for 16+ people, 100usd? Seriously??? What did you feed them? Philippines is all about the food. Can't buy good food for cheap here... We're a family of 6 but our usual Sunday dinner goes beyond $100.00.. And we're more economic than most...
@@winstonvalenzuela928 I hear you. It was all shareable foods like a boodle on leafs etc.
@@OHANA-Beach-Suites More power to your business! Construction costs much cheaper here in the RP... Took note of your resort in Cagayan and wishing to visit there soon...
@@winstonvalenzuela928 thank you very much! We would be happy to serve your family in the future!
@@winstonvalenzuela928exactly what kind of food is that, probably karinderya is also expensive here in philippines..
That guy is scam.
Im sure the prices are perfect, no matter what the prices are much much much much cheaper than even airbnbs on average here in the US, and I dont care if they are a negligible amount more expensive than condos in other countries in the region, PH for the win no matter what, that is where I am going when I get financially able.
Mike...Thank you so much for showing us some condos. It is much appreciated. The studio would be fine by me...if there were only a balcony! Please keep them coming
More to come
I admit Thailand have the best facilities and aminities for better living, but I will always choose the Philippines because of their hospitality and the people.
Thank you please promote Philippines ❤🎉
Thank you
Wow bro! You absolutely made us decide to go over there that we can save rather than spending all our earnings here in usa
Damn.! You are good 👍 at this! You almost had me ready to enquire on the studio.....but a couple of years too early, at least for retirement. As a couple, you are a great sales team. The fact you showed the retail outlets in the complex was a great touch. I was already picturing in my mind, daily retirement living there. Well done. Give us more of this. Even in other cities. I would love to see your take on units available in Bacolod city. Thanks.
good video, prices are quite a bit more than Thailand, except the last unit which was closer to the prices in Thailand, we are paying $465 CAD, which is about $350 USD for a similar condo with a much better fridge, we choose Hua Hin 2 hours South of Bangkok. I keep hearing good things about Iloilo, good to see what is available, I am quite surprised that the fridges are so small though, and the rents are so much more than Thailand, our condo includes parking, internet, and full use of the Gym even for 1 month
Guess you need all of that "better stuff" to make up for the fact everything outside of condos and hotels is overrated in Thailand, including the accommodations themselves.
@@gangstagummybear3432 you sound like a very happy and positive person
Hua Hin is a very nice location IMO...Quieter than Pattaya, my speed...Enjoy!
🙏🙏🙏
👍😎😁
@@gangstagummybear3432Everything is overrated??? What is considered everything and why are they overrated? I personally like Thai foods and they are not overrated.
Yea price isn't the only factor, everyone has different needs and different places suit those needs
S&R is my fav grocery store in the Philippines similar to Costco with Kirkland Products. Only P700 membership per year. Cheaper than Costco membership.
Executive Costco membership cost US$100 annually which gets credited back if u spend $5k annually
N i usually spend more than
$5 k annually anyway so my membership fee is free in a sense
That 2 bedroom was nice. I see new mattresses, gray paint on the walls, new shower door and new stackable washer and dryer in the shared bathroom.
I'll take it. 😊
The mattresses looked used n old
Just the tags weren’t removed
@@DoniCato Yes. My list was referring to what I would change before moving in.
Love these apartment hunting video. Please keep these coming. Thank you!
I laughed when you talked about the 7-Eleven. So true. I was in the Visayas and Mindanao in Feb/May/June and I am retiring there in October, starting in Cebu and doing more exploring. Thanks so much for the video, seriously, they should be paying you. Cam
very nice units I've heard thy can really nail you on the parking fees in some condos you should include the parking fees in the video as well
Yes I pinned a message now it's P5k a month for underground parking. And if you park outside it's 85p per day
My wife and I considered purchasing at Avida Towers when it was pre selling a half dozen years ago. Although you did a wonderful job in showing the units, there some downsides to Avida that I personally simply could not get over. 1) No designated laundry space in any unit. I am too old to want to go out to a laundry mat. Been there, done with that. What is the point of having a second bath if it is used exclusively for laundry? 2) Location. Yeah, it is kind of close to SOME things, but still a hassle to get to them. If you walk, there are only some places nearby, and at least some of that walk is actually on the busy road itself (no sidewalk). Driving from Avida is a challenge during rush hour (4 pm to 8 pm) if you are turning left out of Avida. There is no jeepney that I know of that transits there, so you are either walking a bit on the dangerous road or driving to cross it w/out stop lights or stop signs. The units look good. Just letting you know of the reasons I chose not to buy there.
Most definitely can see how that would be the case when nothing else was built up yet, there is now new a/c local buses that travel back and forth here. The next phase is breaking ground now that will fill the area between them and S&R. Not sure if it was then but the sidewalks are all there and run both sides. In the Avita showroom they had the laundry option in the hallway, but these are rentals of course
Avida best condo
That was 6 years ago, you say? Those things you mentioned are not true now.
@@eagleeyes9112 I concur about the sidewalks now being in. We drove past it today while it was light and not overly trafficked, so I did spy sidewalks on each side of the road. Still not certain that the units would have a dedicated laundry area, but but the sidewalks are definitely there.
This is a great video since we are planning to move from here in South Korea to Iloilo. Our plan is to enroll our kids to Ateneo de Iloilo.
Ateneo de Iloilo is one top prestigious school in Iloilo.
Really helpful video. Your content is always tops! Thanks so much.
Really nice! Loved this session! Thanks, guys...
🙏🙏🙏
👍😎👍
Your girl is the star of the show😂 she is gorgeous!
You gave such a great tour, I hope they give you a commission if those units get rented as a result of your video. They should at least give you a nice dinner at one of the high-end restaurants.
No commission, we are happy to do this for our subscribers.
Great video. I just moved into my studio condo over in megaworld. Month to month is definitly the way to go.
Great review of 3 condo units. For me, it's a toss up between the studio and 1 bedroom unit. The studio is enough for what I'd need. I also really like that one could rent for a month or two to try it out and see if one really wants to stay there and in that area. It's also great with all the businesses going in at the ground floor so easy access to needed items & restaurants--will any of those be grocery stores or farm markets or are they nearby? . I'm hoping the 5 gal jugs of waters could be delivered to a condo unit--I don't think I'd like having to carry that all the way back to a condo unit. Laundry being on ground floor is also very convenient. Having the good hospitals (which you reviewed before) being nearby is a great plus for us older folks who have concerns about that.
Any idea about how much of a discount (%) one could expect for changing from a 1 month lease to a 1 year lease?
Also, having a parking space could be convenient if one has a car/scooter--any idea how much that would cost to include?
The water guys always deliver, parking not sure I'll ask
Thanks guys! I'd love to be able to afford the two bedroom unit, it was pretty nice. Having laundry service and water delivery on the property makes things pretty easy too.
Excellent video guys!!! More please. 😀😀
I have to tell you two that you make a great pair for real estate promotions. Mim should give you a couple months free rent just for the very professional way you conducted the tour. And Bianca, you look lovely and elegant in that outfit, and the long hair sets it off nicely. BTW, how many outfits do you own? It reminds me of the movie Jaws, when Chief Brody said, "You're gonna need a bigger boat." You two are going to need the bigger of those three apartments. LOL, thanks for the good 21 minutes watching.
She probably did.....lol
We have a home no need for us to get anything. Just happy to see this for ourselves and share
I appreciate the tour but I found the prices to be a little too expensive. It would be ok if that was in Canadian dollars.
Parking is charged by Atria at P5k a month. It's the 1st floor covered parking.
Mimz Contact Info is facebook.com/mimz.aldea?mibextid=ZbWKwL
More info I was told " 1month advance and 1month security deposit for 1month rental
And for the 1 year rent 1month advance and 2months deposit 1month deposit can consume for the last month stay and the another 1month is where the bills will be deducted for the last month stay or for the damages (if there are any ) of the furnitures or appliances.
18m² in Manila is 650€ and more. Depends on where and what you want inside. Crazy difference.
This would be perfect for my daughter and myself. We are moving from Vancouver island and plan on being there for a few years. My wife's family is in Dumangas and Miagao. We visited this past March/April and loved it.
Ill pay the additional 50 usd higher than Thailand or Vietnam to stay in PH, nothing that Thailand or Vietnam has interest me enough to go there even if the condos there were 10 usd per month.
It's well worth the extra money to pretty much not have a language barrier issue like you do in Thailand and Vietnam outside of the big cities.
@@vgwalldecals definitely for sure
Thanks for showing Michael & Bianca. Nice enough condos but I would say they're very expense. 1 year lease is cheaper as mentioned but it would have to be half price for me to want to move in. Similar places in greater Manila are half the price and in Thailand they're cheaper and nicer. It also looks to be much more of a car neighbourhood and a suburb of anywhere North America. Which is something I'm trying to avoid at any cost.
Thank you for a great video.
Please keep more of these coming,.. especially on the lower price level.
The rent is very similar in Manila, too expensive considering in Iloilo
Iloilo has the largest family income even more than the 10 areas of Manila (I know I was shocked until I looked it up)
I rented a 2 bedroom modern condo in Thailand for 500 a month. Filipino condos and apartments are overpriced for what you get. The internet in Thailand is cheaper and more reliable. My aircon was 60 in Thailand and 75-150 in the philippines.
This city is starting to grow on me. I want to visit Iloilo City
Thank you for these amazing insights into the world of condos. Really great! IloIlo really seems to be a great place to be.
Boy, you have me planning my retirement there! Thanks for the video!
Awesome 👏
$350? My studio apt costs $700. Man I'm coming back!
The 1 room is really nice
Nice Video Bro 🎉
O sooo fascinatingly, in Iloilo, Amazing 😱😱😱😱😱😱🥳🥳💯
Nice apartment if I needed zpartmdnt would take that studio for a modern building affordable anyways and decent size to
nice ! great info.
As always, a great video! We are considering a move to Iloilo but our concern is being able to obtain both domestic help (housecleaning and cooking) full time as well as a full time nurse in our future. This seems to be a challenge everywhere except Manila. Perhaps you could consider a video regarding any reputable agencies in the city, if you have not done so already. It would be greatly appreciated! Salamat!
So far, from what I can surmise in Mike's YT videos, Iloilo is a better bet long term. The airport will reopen and expand its international flights after hiatus from pandemic downturns. HK, Singapore and possibly Korea and Taiwan is only 30 drive minute drive to the airport, on average. It's only a 4 hour drive to Boracay, which is considered to be one of the world's best in its category and don't forget the 3 hours to Sicogon and Gigantes Is. The daily fresh seafood availability in the local market are some of the world's best catch. The flat geography gives the populace different culture and mindset that developed over 1000s years in comparison to other mountainous islands. Panay Island and Iloilo province is famous for a more egalitarian in attitude and social structure compare to other 7100 islands which is more hierarchical and have "Balkanized" with their respective self-appointed royalty and political families.
Again, domestic house help and caregiver are plentiful in the city and nearby towns. Iloilo city has several modern medical center and cancer treatment facilities. Brand new ACE hospital will be fully operational soon and will have better facility than Medical City. Medicus cancer institute has equipment at par with Manila's.
@@greg_regher thank you for your insight! We are having a very difficult time finding what I referenced, however, in Davao Del Norte, specifically Tagum City. But, even in Cebu it's a challenge.
This is the important element for us as, we are in our late sixties and early seventies.
You 2 did a good job on this video.
Thank you for sharing the information
One of the beautiful vlogs ive seen from you guys !!!
Living in Iloilo is cheaper than major cities but it will cost you so much if you're the type to eat out every time... I find Cebu's meals and serving more affordable than Iloilo's... But(and major BUT), Ilonggo foods are much more playing into the taste buds... Sweet, sour, and salty in the end... Manila(lutong tagalog) more salty and spicy...
We have been to Cebu but we were in IT park and the prices there reflect the costs there. It's true this is not the cheap city to live in
The one bedroom is nice but the bed is too small.
Hi,great video i hope you do more videos of condos in the area,specially mega word area please, thank you very much 😊
i guess the best power back is solar power might just as well ask inquire about its reliability and how to acquire it install it properly so you wont be dependent un the unreliable electric service here in the Philippines God bless Bianca and Michael for promoting the Philippines
Not sure there ris anywhere to install solar if you are living in a condo
I never saw much of any power outages in PH when I was there, must be outside of Luzon for sure
nice, now I want to retire in illoilo
The first two bathrooms and two bedrooms at 40000 Filipino pesos a month is not my cup of tea.. I would rather have a furnished rent house for about the same price in a nice subdivision with a pool and clubhouse and gym included.."seek and ye shall find"
Prices quoted are Metro-Manila prices. Iloilo City catching up!
Iloilo is fastest growing and higher family income then all 10 areas of Manila. With only 500k population literally not much time before the prices go up a lot more in our opinion
Iloilo City is really progressing rapidly.Nice place to retire for the expats.
I totally agree !
Ultra expensive, my 2 bed in Cebu is 210usd a month.
@ 17:45 darn it, was hoping pretty gurl includ. .....
🤣
Haha
This was a great video! Just what I was looking for. I have just one question. Do they have backup power for those brown outs that I keep hearing about. I work online and need reliable power for most of the day. (although I do live in Guatemala and have to deal with random power outages too. It'd just be nice if that development had a generator)
Pretty sure they only have emergency lighting generators. Things are getting better these past few months, they have planned outages to upgrade the system maybe once a month per area for a few hours with notice if a few days. Since the 3 day one we had last year we only had one 1 hour unplanned outage since. No flickering or anything during the storms. Fingers crossed they will have to western standards soon
My one small room here which is not furnish is costing me $1,300 except elect,except water and except wifi and tv cable
Heyy, Michael with the real estate license! This may be your calling; your business degree in finance is coming in handy! 👏🤗
Maybe one day :)
Michael and Bianca, you guys are getting famous in the Philippnes. Never gets tired of promoting tourism in the country. Bianca is half Filipino so you guys can buy land there for future home. ( I hope I'm not mistaken) please correct me if I'm wrong.
Ah La Ya...but Ah Leya is close enough ....but no cigar 😂
I know I’ve bought cigars in Manila but never found any any of the other islands I guess I’ll bring as much as I can in with me
MACTAN in cebu has some great apartments with pool /gym/ guards a lot cheaper and on the coast
When was the last time you looked? I had a friend looking there recently and had no luck with $1000 budget for 2 bedroom
Another info-filled vlog on housing options, Michael & Bianca. Thank you! ...
Btw: A-YA-LA is pronounced more like "Apple", vs the word "ate." The Ayala "brand" is highly regarded and revered. The family is one of the Philippines' prominent old-money clans.
Incorrect! Ay is pronounced like "eye". Therefore "Eye- all- ah". Please don't give out misinformation.
It's NOT misinformation, Keith. "To-may-to /To-mah-to." I was focusing on how "A" should be pronounced - not "Ay". Several examples in Google agree with me. ... why u taking it PERSONAL, bruh?
I think pricing here in Eastwood is much more reasonable. When it comes to renting that i why a stayed here. And like mu work from that building that im currently renting in its just 3 to 5 mins walking distance hehe
How much are furnished places going for? How many bedrooms did you rent? Very interested, we never got the chance to see any when we went there
You know you guys are really good at presenting the units. Should maybe get jobs as realtors. Thoughts?
Thanks
Mark Euringer
Iloilo is the best in all cities in the phillipine that make cheaper for the service of the foreigner Philippines is a loving country ok a Christian country who love their enemy ok
I will be moving to Cebu City on September 25th. I figure I will spend 6 months there while I look around for a more permanent place. I will definitely come visit Iloilo and San Joaquin. What I might do live 6 month in Cebu City, 6 months in Iloilo, 6 months in San Joaquin, 6 months in La Union City, Boracay for 6 months etc etc … in 5 years I could live in 10 different areas before I decide on a permanent place 😂. I’m single and won’t get myself tied down with a girlfriend. All I need is a gym, outdoor pool, a good coffee shop, a few decent local restaurants, a 24 hour 7-11 and a sports bar. I figure I can live pretty comfortably on $2,000 USD in the Philippines. Especially if I am not supporting a girl friend and her family 😂
Nah 17k per month for that studio ? Nah.. Idk where that is but that kind of studio is similar to what we have here in CDO and it only costs 8k monthly
Has balcony too
Not far off prices in Perpignan, France. Just shows to me that life must be difficult for many locals at those kinds of prices.
Some yes but just like everywhere else not everyone makes minimum wage, professionals here earn about P150k to P240k a month
@@BiancaBeyond Glad to hear. Those prices seem expensive for what you’re getting (comparatively obviously: it’s cheap compared to lower Manhattan).
@@daredevilforlife cheaper than where we lived in Canada too our extremely small studio apartment was $2500 a month ($2k usd) now goes for $3300 today
Buy your own condo instead of renting
It's about the same price per month since the average condo unit is 8-10 million Peso for a one bedroom. Plus the monthly condo fees. You really must be sure it's the place you want to live before making a decision like that
21:07 what music is that? Who's the band?
The studio is my favorite. What does it include?❤
Just what you saw, you pay internet and the electrical bill for it. Best to ask Mimz the details
Thanks guys very informative video only thing im in Canada and for us Canucks prices in Canadian dollars would be nice god bless🙏
Totally understand but Canadian audience is very small for us, we have way more USA viewers (10x more) for reference we get 40P to every dollar here USA get 55P.
I ran the numbers and it looks like those first 2 units are around $1.09 USD per sq ft. I'm paying $1.86 sq ft here in southern California for a nice 750 sq ft one bedroom condo on 3rd floor. Granite counters in Kt and bath with travertine flooring, stainless steel appliances, electric oven/cooktop, dishwasher, washer/dryer, full size SS refrigerator, vaulted ceiling, wraparound balcony overlooking greenbelt, walk-in closet, spacious covered carport, central AC and heat. Free water, trash pickup. Only downside carpeted master bed and living room. What can I get for $1400 a month rental in PI?
That's fantastic prices for a condo in California! That means a 700sq ft condo is under $800 a month rent furnished. Seriously never move that's way below the average rent in the usa
Also $1400 a month would be your entire months living budget here. I haven't seen a condo rent for $1400. I'm sure it's exists but it's way higher than we have seen
@@BiancaBeyond I have lived there for 10 years so the landlord keeps my rent below market which is currently $2,000 to $2,100 for 1 bedroom's. My son who lives in a more expensive area of Orange County pays $3,000 a month for his 1 bedroom. But he can afford it as him and his Filipina make a combined $24,000 a month. Sadly in southern California that that's barely enough income to buy a house in their area. Since mortgage rates jumped to almost 8% they are holding off buying a house. Damn Biden INFLATION.
@@BiancaBeyond I have seen expat channels where top tier 1 bedroom's in Manila rent for $1,200 BUT who the hell wants to live in a Big City! NO THANKS! My Condo backs to a creek and the green rolling hills, the only noise is coyotes when they catch a wild rabbit. My neighbor has seen a mountain lion and I occasionally see Bobcat's. It's nice master plan community away from the BIG city life and I LIKE IT that way.
Hmm I’m going to Iloilo three months maybe 6 so I’ll save this info . Question are utilities included? Thanks
Studio $350! No thx ! Get a townhouse in das MA's or davoa in gated comm. $250ish!
Hello guy"s do you know if the hospital if it is public or private? Thanks!
That one is a private hospital but the provincial hospital is 5 minutes away as well
Do they have a casino in Iloilo where I can bet on NFL and College Football? I’m currently living in the Dominican Republic where they have sports books on nearly every street corner. I’m up about 20,000 pesos this month (around $400 USD) betting baseball. The Seattle Mariners are going to win the World Series this season. You heard it here first. My sleeper team this year in the NFL is the New Orleans Saints. You heard it here first.
Is there available 2 bedroom unit locted in 2nd or 3rd floor.? We are seniors so we prefer the lower floor. How much is the price? Thanks. Merle from USA.
❤
I prefer ocean view, open and modern design. These look outdated and cramp.
Your eye has a bad take on what is outdated, did you mean "cramped" cause the word "cramp" was the wrong term to use in that situation.
I wish you had put the location in print. Where were you? Lol thanks
No lap pool
Were s immigration ? Is this manilla?
Is this vedio shot in cebu business park around cause studio rent is very affordable ?
Curious is there like a farmers market nearby there i think it wkuld be cheaper and better quality than sm market and i think its cheaper in a farmers local market. Likd videos like that much apfeciated to seee rental mkdern units for 1 prson and 2 people thanks for
Yes directly beside S&R!
@@BiancaBeyond thanks for the reply very informative video and a really good one in my opinion on those new building apartments
of course
I’m interested in one bedroom , if still available? Ty
Hello can I ask who I can contact the one who in charge that condo ,as soon as possible coz we really like the place we wanted to rend the one with 1room for a month, looking forward to hear the reply ASAP
have friend to many blogger for more info I'm a pilipino in manila jeje ok
I enjoy your videos but they are too lengthy watching forn20 minutes isn't in the cards
Do you have any realtors I can contact to find a nice fully furnished pet friendly to buy or rent because I have two cats ??
Why are the fridges so small? Is that just an american thing? Also, no oven?
I agree, the fridges are way to small, that would be a dealbreaker for me, all the fridges in the condos we have rented in Thailand were either full size or very close to it
Why do I need a huge fridge? I would be eating out most of the time, and alot of stuff I get is dried goods, the oven? Again, I dont plan on cooking much, or even being in my condo 50% of the time, so Ill just be eating out, it doesnt matter.
@@kleerogers Lol, if a fridge is a deciding factor for you in something like this, then I am glad all of you that need to get as much as you can for as little as you can stay over in transland, all the weirdos can stay over there
@@gangstagummybear3432 that’s cool for you. I prefer cooking myself and saving money for other things.
@@grneal26 Cool, if that fridge isnt enough for you, then I hope you find somewhere that gives you a fridge big enough for you to live in.
i couldn’t find this .can you write down here the area and building
for studio
Great vid guys
where location please
condos are
❤❤❤
What about 3 bedrooms
No there bedrooms in these buildings sorry.
???? I have sent 2 messages past 2 days to mimz account to try and rent one of the condos but she has not returned them. Do u have another way to contact her. ?????
Mind contacting us? We asked Mimz to check the message requests section
Are you getting into the realty business?
I doubt that would be the path for us. But maybe something similar one day
What city are you right now? Ill be in Manila around january for one month. Im looking for $16.00 dollar a day hotel. I prefer to stay at makati financial district area and close to shopping malls and foid court.
We are in Iloilo City right now. It's been a while since we have seen P800 per night hotels to be honest outside of using Ogada App for super deals
You lucky if you find a hostel with that money. 😅
None of these are worth $350 a month even for a 5 year lease
350 is for 1 month the longer the lease the lower the price
