      I agree 100%. This house is too complex, Americans like that. European houses tend to be square, with square regular rooms, especially from the Georgian era. I don't like all that snaking about and crazy roofs all connecting at wierd angles.

Our house is open to local women and children when they became misplaced. Because of this, my wife and I would not sell this house for any amount of money.

      I think his done. He gonna regret it. In life there is just no turning back. We don't have unlimited energy. The life now in the US is not the same during his younger days, po. If you're living in the US right now then you know that. tons of mass shooting, even in schools. Properly taxes, and pricing. And mortgage interest is way too high, if not buying in cash. I don't know, I'm kinda scared for them moving in to the US. And selling what they have built carefully.
      Plus, food price has tripled as well. But I wish the best for them.

One member of my family they built a house with stunning river views costed them 10m plus dollars here in USA it’s over 11 thousand square feet home I kid you not. But since it’s built here in the USA they can sell anytime with no problem finding a buyer. But in the Philippines it’s tough to find a buyer with this kind of home unless you’re in the city like Manila or Tagaytay. Good luck for finding a buyer🙏 and thanks for sharing.

Trees were knocked down everywhere, what was once a tropical paradise was turned into some hellish mess.

    I'm genuinely curious why people would put their heart and soul into a forever home like this and then leave. Any real answers? If you have money on display you become a target of various interests. Family and friends, government officials, police or a change in tax laws? I could be wrong but this doesn't seem like the kind of home you just walk away from because you're bored.

      This is a huge house with a lot of maintenance to take care of… probably there was no issue with money building the house but the issue comes with the costs of maintenance over the years after you have already built the house. We should learn a lesson from videos on the internet featuring abandoned mansions and beautiful houses just left to rot by their owners. I would never build a house like this even if I have the money… I always think of mega houses like this as a trap. You put so much of your heart and soul building it and you get trap in it. I would rather spend my money on a very good sturdy car that can take me anywhere I want and I can wake up in a different place with a different view everyday😊

    One of the filipino actor named Derek Ramsey's house is worth 1 Billion pesos. This house is so big and the land. 220 million is really worth it.

    No,the house can withstand typhoons.Negros Oriental is not facing directly the Pacific Ocean.It is sorrounded by Bohol,Cebu,and Siquijor islands.Before the typhoon hits Negros it will hit first the surrounding Islands that's why typhoon damage is rare in Negros.The worst that can happen to destroy typhoon related damagecis when there is too much rain from the mountains and overflows down the rivers, which can cause floodings.

    My two cents. Each to his/her own, different strokes for different folks. This video just randomly got pushed to my YT feed so I watched it and hence my feedback.
    Im from Iloilo, Panay but Im currently living in the US and have been for almost half a century, and now happily and peacefully retired. During my working life with my husband as professionals we lived in a 7k square footage home because we wanted to raise our two boys in a lifestyle that allowed them to be safe, comfortable, and inspired to strive for the same future life we started with.
    At 70sh, what I found out is that mansions and big homes are truly appropriate and enjoyable when you are younger and working, raising kids, and also enjoying social entertainment with friends and colleagues regularly. But once we became empty nesters and reached seasoned citizenship, we realized that our practical needs had changed/reversed in a way of saying. So we got rid of our big homes and went for a one-story two bedroom living in the rural part of our state. It was a deliberate downsizing to reduce our footprints to the most minimal level, the best decision we made. NO STAIRS PLEASE! LOL! The kitchen is fifteen steps away and the bathroom is around the nearest corner and we are so happy with our architectural choice. When you are older that's just reality one must acknowledge.
    This guy appears to be older than me, maybe close to the other end of the 70sh, he also looks healthy and quite purpose-driven with his life in the Phil. But a healthy senior still going and going is not the same as a healthy working adult before 60. Just saying like it is , broadly speaking. The moments of letting one's aging body slow down are more the norm than indulging in frenetic and more stress-triggering lives. And constructing and maintaining a mansion, especially in the PI is one classic example. But great luck to him hopefully he has another 20 healthy years to enjoy the fruits of his arduous labor over there.

    The key in the Phils is to keep a low profile with this house you will stick out like a sore thumb.
